HOT DOG RUN IS LOADS OF FUN! 

We're  excited to bring to life an electrifying race for a worthy cause! 
​

Hot Dog Run is Midland’s favorite dog-friendly race that allows participants to run/walk (or fly) with their four-legged sidekicks! People and pets of all ages, sizes and breeds come together each year for a fun event to help save the lives of Midland’s homeless cats & dogs.

On its 9th year, Hot Dog Run has been gaining momentum since it started in 2015, averaging 350-400 participants (and their dogs).

Run for the finish line  alongside your trusty sidekick and fellow pet lovers.  Did we mention we have a superhero theme this year?

WHY SUPPORT HOT DOG RUN? 
Hot Dog Run is an important fundraiser for Midland Humane Coalition, helping us rescue our community’s homeless cats & dogs and give them a second chance to find furr-ever homes.

Each year, we rescue an average of 300-400 pets from various desperate situations and give them a lifeline.   The more funds we raise, the more cats & dogs we can save!
