99k for Canines October

I’m taking part in the 99K For Canines with Dogs Trust Ireland!

I’m taking part in the 99K For Canines with Dogs Trust Ireland!

I'll be taking on a challenge of walking 99 kilometres in a month to help stray and abandoned dogs and puppies. Every euro raised gives the gift of a second chance to our furry friends in Dogs Trust Ireland's care - thank you for your support!

The aim of Dogs Trust Ireland is to give stray and abandoned dogs a second chance at a brighter future with responsible, caring new owners. Since opening their Rehoming Centre in 2009, they have rescued and rehomed over 22,000 dogs. They rely on public support to fund their work and they are entirely reliant on the generosity of amazing people to continue our life-saving work. Every single donation raised provides each dog that comes into their care with nutritious food, veterinary treatment, a microchip, vaccinations and most importantly, love and cuddles from their canine carers and a forever home.

I walked a total of 19km on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday with my trusty companions sometimes and on my own sometimes so more than 100 km in all. Sunday was appalling weather and squeezed in 4 km - thank you Dogs Trust I’m enjoying walking and thank you everyone for your kind donations!

84.5km walked this month - just 14.5 km to go which will I think be fine

Thank you so much my friend of what is now fifty years !!!! Yikes 😱 but what a privilege and a joy for me and your donation will, as you know make a big difference to some lovely rescued dog.  

A couple of pics from the last couple of days but none of the rain - the dogs didn’t fancy it either 😀

Sunday 6th Oct

Lost my page but have been walking all the same

Sunday 6th Oct
What a fair weather walker I am - yesterday’s apocalyptic rain meant I didn’t get out for a walk but since I last posted I managed 4 km walks each day except yesterday so 12 km further walked so only just under 80 km to go for the rest of October - well on track 

1st and 2nd October and more than 8km done

Wednesday 2nd Oct

8.6 km walked today and yesterday - 90.4 km to do

Wednesday 2nd Oct
Beautiful day so no difficulties - wanting to average 4km per day

Thank you to my Sponsors
