Join us on Monday, May 25 (Memorial Day), from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM at Coldstream Park for Lexington Humane Society’s annual "Mutt Strut" Walk-a-Thon, proudly presented by Hunter Faulconer, and sponsored by MetLife Pet Insurance, Nancy Barron & Associates, Inc. Investments, T-Fiber, and Traditional Bank.

This year’s Mutt Strut is more than just a walk—it’s a walk-a-thon fundraiser where individuals and teams come together to raise critical funds for animals in need. Participants are encouraged to set team/individual fundraising goals, rally support, and make a meaningful impact. The top three fundraising teams or individuals will win exciting prizes for their entire team! *Stay tuned for prizes announcement.*

This 1.5-mile walk-a-thon is all about having fun, getting active, and making a difference. Every dollar raised helps provide shelter, medical care, and adoption services to more than 4,000 animals each year—when they need it most.

Walk. Run. Fundraise. Save Lives.
