2022 Mutt Strutt

May 22, 2022

This year at the 2022 Music City Mutt Strutt, people and pooches alike will gather to strutt their stuff for a great cause! All money raised through the Mutt Strutt enables the Nashville Humane Association to provide care and love to the animals entrusted to us each day. The event is outdoors, fun for the whole family, and we will be awarding medals to all runners and special prizes at the event. Mutt Strutt is a 5K or 1 mile fun run, walk, or strutt.

The Music City Mutt Strutt is about raising funds for homeless and at-risk dogs and cats. As an entirely gift-based not-for-profit, Nashville Humane relies on events like Mutt Strutt and generous gifts from donors like you to save lives. So a “race” like Mutt Strutt is less about the result on the course, and more about the results in our city and beyond. Because in the end, we’re not the Boston Marathon. This one is about Boston Terriers, and Chihuahuas, and Chocolate Labs, etc.  You’re helping us raise funds for shelter pets!

Registration: $20

• It’s great exercise
• You get to do something good for yourself that is also good for someone else!
