Register for the October Dog Walking Challenge and join our October Dog Walking Challenge Facebook group today. We will offer lots of hints, tips and support throughout the challenge!

You can track your miles however works best for you. Use an app like Strava or use our exclusive mile tracker, which you’ll receive in your welcome pack alongside your doggy bandana. You can also access a digital version in the ‘files’ section of the Facebook group.

No, any fundraising you are able to do is incredible and will go towards the people we support. We do suggest aiming for £150 as this means you will earn your furry friend their very own dog tag (basically a medal!).

Once you are officially registered then you can of course use JustGiving! Just follow this link and join our October Dog Walking Challenge JustGiving campaign.

Yes there is! Come join our team and share your progress on Strava.

Absolutely! This challenge can be varied to suit dogs (and people) of all shapes, sizes and abilities. Just tailor the challenge to best suit you.

🐶Perhaps your petite pooch can tackle 180 minutes of walking each week, mirroring the 180 litres of blood filtered by healthy kidneys each day.

🐕‍🦺Maybe you'd prefer a daily challenge of 22 minutes of walking a day to represent the 22 people diagnosed with kidney failure each day.

🐩Perhaps your furry fellow has longer legs and can manage 10,000 steps a day to show support for the 10 people who are added to the transplant list daily.

This challenge is for everyone! Make it your own.

When you register for the challenge, you will automatically be claiming your free doggy bandana. Register for the Dog Walking Challenge here.

Your fundraising page will stay open until 8 November 2025 when it will automatically close.

Why not see if you can help walk your neighbours' dogs or check out BorrowMyDoggy to find a pup in your area!
