Adoption Event #4: Dogwood Classic 5k
April 27 @ 7:30 am - 9:30 am
For our fourth event, we’re trying something brand new. All of our dogs this time are very energetic and would make great running partners. So where better to find them new homes than at a KTC 5k race? The Hard Knox Pizza Dogwood Classic 5k begins and ends at the parking lot with the bathrooms in Sequoyah Park at 2250 Cherokee Blvd. (For some extra funds, you can sign up for the race here: https://runsignup.com/Race/TN/Knoxville/DogwoodClassic5K)
We invite you out to meet the dogs who are participating in class this session. Some may be on home visits with potential adopters by this time. They are looking for their fur-ever homes! They will be through their third week of class, so they’ll be happy to show off their new skills.
In this session, we have Calamity Jane, (pictured right) plus Annie Oakley, Maverick, and Whistle. (Do you like our Old West theme??)
All dogs are medically screened, fully vaccinated, microchipped, on heartworm preventative, and will have beginner basic obedience training at the end of their 4-week course. We are accepting applications and will work on home visits during classes.
All dogs will be able to go to their new homes on Friday, May 3rd after graduation.
All breeds and ages are the best guesses from our Dog Selection Committee and Veterinarian.
This event is rain or shine.
