The Bellevue Four on the 4th Dog Jog & Walk is a cherished Independence Day event that brings together dog lovers from the Puget Sound area to support Seattle Humane, an open-door animal shelter. Taking place on July 4th, participants can engage in a non-competitive 4K jog and walk starting at 9:00 a. m. at Ashwood Park, where dogs are encouraged to dress in patriotic attire. Seattle Humane will showcase their MaxMobile adoption truck, allowing attendees to meet potential new furry friends.

The event emphasizes the importance of exercising pets before the stress of fireworks, offering tips for keeping dogs calm during celebrations. Attendees can look forward to various post-race activities, including a dog costume contest, goodie bags, and family-friendly entertainment. With engaging vendor booths and complimentary refreshments, the event aims to foster community spirit while supporting animal welfare. This festive occasion is not only a fun day out but also a significant opportunity to raise funds for caring for homeless pets in the area. The Bellevue Four on the 4th Dog Jog & Walk is a perfect blend of exercise, celebration, and community support for animal lovers.
