Get ready to unleash your inner adventurer and make a difference in the lives of homeless canines at Adventure Dog 2023! This one-of-a-kind event is set to take place on 2 April at Wandin Park Estate Gruyere, and it’s not one to be missed.

For the dog lovers out there, Adventure Dog offers the ultimate challenge for both you and your furry best friend. The event features 25 obstacles over a 4km course that will test your mind, body, and bond with your dog. Whether you’re a seasoned competitor or new to the game, Adventure Dog welcomes participants of all fitness levels. With 1,000 competitors expected to take on the challenge and 4,000 people cheering from the sidelines, the event is sure to be an unforgettable experience.

But Adventure Dog is more than just a physical challenge – it’s an opportunity to give back to the community. The event raises funds for Animal Aid, an organisation dedicated to helping homeless dogs. Regular competitor Aaron, with his dog Brandy, completed four laps of the course last year and was moved by the outpouring of support for Animal Aid. He has chosen to fundraise again this year to help the lost and homeless animals at the shelter.

The event village is filled with dog-related market stalls, live music, and entertainment, and offers a family-friendly atmosphere for both participants and spectators. Spectators are able to cheer on from the side-line for free.

This year, Adventure Dog aims to raise over $80,000 for Animal Aid, which supports over 6,000 homeless animals each year at the shelter.

Mark your calendars for 2 April 2023 and join the adventure at Wandin Park, 305 Victoria Road, Gruyere, VIC, 3770. Adventure Dog 2023 is more than just a physical challenge, it’s a chance to make a difference in the lives of animals in need.
