Here is a chance for man’s best friend to show off in a multi-event known as the Davis Family YMCA Pooch Pentathlon. With five events to compete in, your canine is sure to find at least one that fits. Awards will be presented to the Top Dog in each event for each division.
Please arrive early on race day to register for specific events. Dogs may participate in as many of the five events as they please.
