Strut Your Mutt St. Louis 2016
On Saturday our months of challenges and fundraising culminated in the Best Friend’s Animal Society Strut Your Mutt in St. Louis. Area rescues and animal lovers gathered for what turned out to be an absolutely gorgeous day, for one purpose: Save Them All.
The St. Louis Strut Your Mutt event raised over $30,000 for local rescues and I raised $1,000 for my team, Partners 4 Pets.
During the walk we ran into another senior pug in a stroller!
This is Chrissy and she is 14.
Great news! Both Pug and Molly’s microchips were still functioning perfectly.
This year’s event was absolutely fantastic. I want to give special thanks to everyone who donated or bought one of my bracelets as well as Best Friend’s Animal Society and the Strut Your Mutt sponsors: BOB’s for Skechers, Nature’s Variety and Too Faced Cosmetics.
Every day more than 9,000 dogs and cats in shelters are killed and through hard work and dedication we can one day get that number to zero.

Looks like a great event and how wonderful so much money was raised!

Yes and it’s a great way for the smaller rescues to get exposure and a piece of the money raised!

This looks like such a great event. I know they have Strut Your Mutts around the country and wish they had one near us.

They do have a Virtual Walk option now. It’s not the same as the events with everyone coming together, but a great way to help out!

Great event for a great cause, looks like you all had a great time! It’s so nice that they had a Check Your Chip booth, microchipping is so important.
Love & biscuits,

Yeah! I’ve been meaning to have them checked because Molly’s is going on 13 years old! It was actually a local group called Missouri Lost and Found that, as you might have guessed, educates and helps people reunite with lost pets.

Thanks for showing us first hand the power of Strutt Your Mutt!—thank you for participating! And I’m sure it was lots of fun, too! Great causes always are!
