Do You Have A Pet That Hates The Vet?
• Skip your pet’s meal before the vet visit. A hungry pet can often be distracted with yummy treats. • Leave your cat’s carrier out at home. Feeding or giving treats in the carrier can make it feel like a safe place to be. • Bring your pet in to get treats when no procedures are needed. www.nansemondvet.com | (757) 539-6371
OUR HOURS: Mon. - Fri. 8 a.m. - 6 p.m. | Sat. 8 a.m. - 1 p.m.

Mutt Strut offers fun, activities
6 | SUNDAY, APRIL 29, 2018
BY TRACY AGNEW EDITOR
The 10th annual Mutt Strut Dog Walk and Festival is set to take place from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 6 at Bennett’s Creek Park, 3000 Bennetts Creek Park Road. There were a number of changes to the event last year, and Suffolk Humane Society board president Rhonda Jones said they all went so well that they have been kept for this event. “It is one of our largest fundraisers,” she said. “We’re not associated with any other organization. The way we raise funds for Mutt Strut is through sponsorship and the pledge walk.” There’s still time to sign up for the pledge walk or to be a sponsor or vendor through the website, www.suffolkhumanesociety.com.
Activities at the dog-friendly event will include canine contests: Frosty Paws eating, a talent contest and Race the Wind, which will clock the speed of dogs running. There will be demonstrations by the Suffolk Police Department K-9 unit as well as an agility demonstration. Lure coursing and photos with summer Santa will also be available. Allonge Dance Academy will provide a dog wash during the event. Humans can enjoy live music by Rio, beer, food vendors and cornhole. Plenty of vendors will be on hand, including animal rescues from all over the state. Money raised helps the society continue its mission and vision “to build responsible human-animal bonds in the city of Suffolk and keep the need for shelters to a minimum,” Jones said.
