CapeK9Cardio Presents Their 3rd Annual K-9 5K Trail Run/1 Mile Walk on July 1st 2012 to Benefit the Mashpee Dog Park
CapeK9Cardio began its pet sitting/dog walking business after Owner, Jason Michaud, noticed an improvement in the disposition of his Jack Russell Terrier after taking him on runs. Since then the business has grown to include a K-9 5K Trail Run or 1 Mile Walk to raise money for local dogs while emphasizing the importance of exercise for dogs. This year the 3rd annual event will be held on July 1st to support the ground breaking of the Mashpee Dog Park. Their mission is to promote responsible dog ownership and safe, legal off-leash recreation for dogs living in Mashpee and the surrounding areas.
