An all Staffie walk for charity

Just throwing this out there but could it be possible that as we are all Staffie lovers that maybe we could arrange an Staffie walk & raise some much needed funds for some of the poor staffies who are in rescues?? I.e who ever goes on the walk pays £3 or whatever, get to meet new people, staffies get to meet new friends & raise some cash to help rescues??? As I said just throwing this thought out there xxxx

Sorry but we do not promote forum meet ups but maybe have a word with your local vet to arrange a walk with fellow Staffy owners in your local area.

That's a shame, it sounds like it would be good fun and to raise money for charity is even better.

Why can it not be done?

Where do you live Laura ?? I know there is a walk in September organised by the North West Staffordshire Bull Terrier Club to raise funds for a local Breed rescue

Also the Northern Staffordshire Bull Terrier Rescue usually have a walk around October time for their own charityu fundraising

Awww that's a Shame that this forum doesn't do stuff like that would of thought you would of all be for it?? I live in the Essex area so depending where up north it's held I may possibly be interested in bringing Herbie along xxx

I'll check it out and post here to let you know

There will be some stuff going on down your way , just have to keep a look out for it

Can I ask why it couldn't be done? Xxx

I like to take Herbie to different things to keep him well socialised & I don't mind driving if its not majorly out the way so will keep my eyes peeled for up & coming events to take him xxx

I've just made a post for it here Laura

Omg I was just thinking the same. I do socialise my honey a lot but would love to meet up with other people with staffies. I would love to organise a massive dog walk too. A friend of mine goes on an English bull terrier walk.

Thank you Steve. I did read kathys comment. I haven't had much luck with my local vets.
