Jog With Your Dog
Jog with your dog and raise money for Arthurshiel Rescue Centre. For a small donation take your dog for a run round a marked trail in the grounds of Thirlestane Castle. Jogging with your dog can be a very good way to increase your dog's fitness, and as they become more fit, it can also help you stay committed to your own personal exercise program. Even if you're not interested in the fitness aspect just come along and enjoy the time together. Don't forget, Dogs Allowed runs for two days so there's no need for a couple to fight over who gets the dog. You can both have a shot. See the programme for start times.
