About this race
3rd Annual Doggie Dash 5K
Get ready to lace up your sneakers and leash up your pup for the 3rd Annual Doggie Dash 5K! 🐾 8:00 am October 10, 2026
Join us for another tail-wagging good time as runners, walkers, and their four-legged friends hit the course together to support the Franklin County Animal Shelter. After rave reviews from last year, we’re excited to bring back our new and improved route — a scenic and fun path that everyone loved!
This community favorite event, sponsored by Cornerstone Building Brands, promises a morning full of energy, smiles, and plenty of wagging tails. Whether you’re running for time or strolling for fun, it’s all about getting active, connecting with fellow animal lovers, and helping pets in need find their forever homes.
Stay tuned for details on race packets, adoption opportunities, and post-race festivities — this is one event you won’t want to miss!
