Thank you to everyone who got muddy with us in New Forest this year, we hope you had loads of fun, thank you so much for choosing to support Battersea!

Photos taken on the course and at the finish podium can be viewed and purchased online.

The Muddy Dog Challenge New Forest is a 2.5K and 5K obstacle course that you can take on with your dog by your side. Whether you’re keen to run, or would rather walk, you can tackle the course with friends and family, with or without a dog. Just prepare yourself for a day of mud, sweat, and cheers!

By taking part and fundraising for Battersea, you’ll be helping us provide love and care for the thousands of dogs and cats that come into our care, and even those that might never find their way to a Battersea centre.

We’re very excited to be returning to the beautiful Breamore House in Hampshire. The Elizabethan mansion is located within an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and overlooks the Avon Valley on the Edge of the New Forest.

First aid and veterinary cover will also be available on the day.

 

RAISING MONEY FOR DOGS AND CATS 

We ask each Muddy Dog Challenge participant to try and raise at least £100. This helps us cover the cost of the event and ensures we can maximise the funds going directly to the animals in our care. Although there is no fundraising target for children, if you are running with a child we encourage you to try and raise more than £100.

Head to the Fundraising page for fundraising tips, and more information on how your money helps dogs and cats. The money you raise not only helps us look after the animals arriving at our three centres, it also helps us be here for dogs and cats further afield.
