Beat Update

Over the weekend, the Whitman County Animal Shelter hosted the 5th Annual "Mutt Strut" at Reaney Park in Pullman on Saturday October 5th.

All proceeds for this event went towards the support of Pooch Park, Pullman's very own off-leash dog park and the first in Whitman County.

In addition to the walk and meet-and-greet, visitors and their pets were given the opportunity to enter into a skills competition for dogs.

Events in the contest included:

Baseball- dogs complete a command at each base

Doggy Bob- hot dog chunk speed eating

Peanut Butter Spoons- peanut butter speed eating

Shed Under; Best Shedder- dog who sheds the most wins

Items for a silent auction and cash donations were also accepted towards Pooch Park.

The event was sponsored by Alpine Animal Hospital, Wysup Chrysler Jeep Dodge, DABCO Birch Hill Apartments, and WSU's Companion Animal Club.
