Race Page 🐾

Dog-Friendly Race Events 


We know how exhilarating it is to be outside enjoying a run, hike, or excursion with your four-legged companion. Most dog-friendly race events are in the process of being rescheduled, and we will continue to provide updates on our Race Page as new dates are announced for 2024 and beyond.

If you would like us to update or add your local dog-friendly race event, or if you're interested in becoming an Iron Doggy™ selected event, please send us a message. 

We are incredibly humbled and grateful for your continued support during these times. As dog lovers and outdoor enthusiasts, we can all create opportunities that increase our bond with our dogs and ensure a lifetime of new experiences.
