Pup-a-Go 5k Hike/run

The Pup-A-Go 5k Hike/Run is an annual event held at Papago Park in Phoenix, Arizona, featuring a 5K course that loops counterclockwise around the park. Participants can run, jog, or hike with their dogs or solo, with an emphasis on community and respect for all attendees. Dogs must be leashed and vaccinated, and doggie waste bags are provided.

The event supports Home Fur Good, a no-kill animal shelter, with a portion of registration fees donated. Runners receive a commemorative t-shirt, sticker, and dog bandana. The course is flat and well-marked, with an aid station at the start offering water and snacks. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
