Dog owners will get a unique chance to walk their canine companions in the stunning grounds of Cirencester Park by the kind permission of the Earl of Bathurst – all to raise funds and awareness for PetSavers – an animal charity that helps treat pet diseases.

PetSavers is a Gloucester based charity committed to helping vets and researchers discover cures for the diseases that cause pets suffering. They are encouraging animal lovers and their four-legged companions to put their best paws forward and help raise money for the charity.

Dogs and their owners can start the walk at any time between 10am and 2pm and choose one of the two routes suited to different fitness levels and wheelchair and pram access. Fundraisers taking part in the event can walk any number of dogs, but all must be on a lead and owners must carry a container, bag and poop-scoop. After collecting their medal and goody bag on completion of the walk participants will be able to enjoy delicious refreshments on what the charity hopes to be a perfect autumn day.

Mark said: “I am delighted to be able to support the first ever charity dog walk run by PetSavers to raise money and awareness for animal health. I urge everyone to don their wellies and take part in this fundraising charity dog walk in aid of PetSavers to both support and highlight the fantastic work they continue to do.”

Registration on the day will open at 9:30 and entry is £10 per dog and the profits from any additional sponsorship that your canine companion may raise will go directly towards supporting crucial research of the conditions that affect small animals.

PetSavers is a division of the British Small Animal Veterinary Association, which exists to promote excellence in small animal practice through education and science. The BSAVA’s charity has invested more than £2 million into vital clinical research and training programmes over the past 40 years, which has led to some key scientific breakthroughs in the treatment of small animal diseases. Our patron is Gyles Brandreth. Further information can be found on PetSavers’ website – www.petsavers.org.uk . None of our studies use experimental animals, and we do not support work that involves them.
