POGO Events and FIDO present a Dog Friendly version of The Amazing New York Race. September 13, 2009.
The following is taken directly from the POGO Website via Dog Friendly Amazing New York Race - Eventbrite.: The Amazing New York Race is part scavenger hunt, part obstacle course and ALL NEW YORK. A series of clues leads you and your pup around Park Slope, Brooklyn performing physical and mental challenges along the way. Participants meet in Prospect Park at 1:00 pm and dogs will be paired up into teams of 2 by a trained behaviorist. OR, you can sign up as a team of two on your own if you are coming with a friend. The cost of $35 is per dog (not per person) so feel free to come with your partner, etc. The Race takes about two hours with an after party. Please wear comfortable shoes. You should have a digital camera or camera phone. All participants will receive a "doggy bag" with loads of goodies from our sponsors. There will also be a "rest station" with food, drinks and snacks for your dog if they get tired along the way. A portion of the proceeds go to a local Brooklyn Dog Shelter - Sean Casey Animal Rescue.
Sean Casey Animal Rescue Mission Statement: "The purpose of this endeavor is to aid unfortunate animals in the interest of a higher quality of life. We take in rescued, confiscated, neglected, injured, ill, unmanageable, or otherwise unwanted animals from private owners, zoos, shelters, and other public organizations.

rehabilitators."
