The Scottish SPCA is welcoming dogs and their humans to join them as they celebrate their first 6k Mutt Strut at Strathclyde Country Park this summer.
Scotland’s animal welfare charity is inviting animal lovers to take part in the free walk around the beautiful shores of Strathclyde Loch in Motherwell on Sunday June 2. They are also encouraging participants to raise as much money as they can to help Scotland’s animals.
Manager of the Scottish SPCA Animal Rescue and Rehoming Centre in Lanarkshire, Peter Fleming said: “We’re really excited to host our first 6k Mutt Strut in Strathclyde Country Park, especially after the success of the event at Lochore Meadows in Fife earlier in the year.
“As the park is accessible, everyone can take part, no matter their age, ability, or dog ownership status! Even if you don’t have a dog, you can come and enjoy the canine company.”

“As it is summer and the days are longer, there will be plenty of new and exciting smells, sounds and sights for dogs to investigate.
“There will also be an opportunity to chat to some local companies who specialise in dog care and services.
“We hope the 6k Mutt Strut will help us raise vital funds to help rehabilitate, rehome and release animals in Scotland. As we receive no government funding, we rely entirely on the generous support of the public.
“Come along, get some fresh air and spend some time in canine company!”
