New York City, how much swag is in your strut?
Last year’s Strut Your Mutt produced a whole lot of swag and wag! Some 1,600 people and their 1,000 dogs strutted to raise more than $282,000, with approximately $195,000 of it staying in the New York City area to help local homeless pets. Think you can make this year even bigger and better? Then get ready for Best Friends Animal Society's sixth annual Strut Your Mutt in New York City.
