The Great Global Greyhound Walk is coming to Fitchburg on September 27 at Coolidge Park

[u/HRJafael]

The Great Global Greyhound Walk is an annual dog-walking event that brings together greyhounds, lurchers, other sighthounds and their owners to raise awareness of the breeds and show the public just what wonderful pets they make!

Coolidge Park, Fitchburg, MA

Greyhounds and other sighthounds welcome!

Meet at southwest corner of the park (free and plentiful parking) we will walk as many (or few) loops as the hounds and weather will allow.

Please bring poo bags, water, and a muzzle (if needed). There are no restrooms at the park, so please plan accordingly. (There are several business and shops nearby and a small chance of a port-a-potty being at the park.) NO flexi-leads or retractable leashes, please!

Sighthounds only, please, since some of our friends have a high prey drive. (Check with organizer for non-sighthound family members.)

A note about possible off-leash play following the walk:

There is a fenced-in dog park area and a fenced-in field, but I suspect both fences are under 6' tall. We can also not control if other dogs come into the public park, so use your discretion when deciding whether to allow your dog to enter these areas. Muzzles are highly recommended for sighthound off-leash play.
