宠物竞走活动2019

More than just being man’s best friend, dogs are also one of our heart’s best allies! To raise greater awareness of the cardiovascular benefits associated with walking – a low impact physical activity, hundreds of dog-lovers along with their furry friends participated in the third Woof-a-thon event organised by the Singapore Heart Foundation on 2 Nov 2019 at Oasis Terraces, Punggol.

The event, graced by Mr Teo Ser Luck, Member of Parliament for Pasir Ris-Punggol GRC, had a sign up of 300 dogs for the 2.5km ‘Buddy Walk’. Participants, both young and old and those without dogs, joined in the walk with their family and friends, supporting the battle against heart diseases.

Other highlights at the event included basic health screenings for pets, CPR+AED demonstrations for both dogs and humans to advocate the importance of learning these skills. There was also a Furtastic Fashionista Parade, where dogs were encouraged to come dressed with a touch of red.

A big thank you to all of you who came down for Woof-a-thon 2019. It was certainly a paw-fect afternoon, and do remember to stay healthy and keep moving paw-ward!
