SUPPORT OUR CHALLENGE TO RAISE GUIDE DOGS

MJ and Josh, along with Zeppelin and Valkyrie, are taking part in the PAWGUST challenge to raise funds for Blind Low Vision NZ’s guide dogs.

It costs around $175,000 to breed, raise and train just ONE Guide Dog throughout its working life. And with thousands of dogs being trained each year, every dollar counts. We need your help so that together, we can create a world where everyone who needs a Guide Dog, has a Guide Dog.

Please make a donation to support the challenge today. Every bit counts.

We'll be updating here, but you can also follow along at  https://pawgust.joshandmj.com/

GOAL REACHED!!!

Thank you so much to all our incredible supporters! Today's walk absolutely smashed our 60km goal for the month, but PAWgust isn't over yet! There's still time for us to add a few extra km onto our final total. We are so incredibly grateful for everyone who has supported Blind Low Vision Trust this month  <3

Home stretch

We had been planning to not have a walk Wednesday-Sunday because we were going to be in Hawke's Bay for a long weekend. Instead we came down with this rotten flu that's been going around and cancelled our trip, but still no walks. We've been playing catch up the last couple of days and our lungs are suffering a little but it's nice to be back walking! We're still on track to hit our goal with 44.68 / 60.00 km walked and 6 days left, but we're keeping a bit of a nervous eye on the weather because these two point-blank refuse to walk in the rain. We'll get there, though, even if we have to knock out one or two longer walks when the weather is playing ball! Don't forget you can see a map of exactly where we've been at  https://pawgust.joshandmj.com/

Over halfway!

We are now officially over halfway both on the calendar and in terms of kilometres walked, which is a very nice place to be with a four-day holiday in the Hawke's Bay coming up and cutting into our PAWGUST time! We took a beautiful walk along part of the new Ōtākaro Avon Corridor today, driving down to Dallington Landing to start and then walking all the way into town and back. We've done some of this stretch before but not all of it, and there were lots of dogs taking advantage of the sun after a miserable Saturday. We did very briefly get caught in a shower on the way home but it wasn't too bad and we did manage to outwalk it without it chasing us.

(Almost) 20% Complete

We're just a smidge under a fifth of the way there after today's Bottle Lake Forest adventure, with 11.98km clocked in. Not bad for only three actual walks! The weather is looking a bit suspicious tomorrow, so we'll have to see what that brings. Don't forget you can see a map of exactly where we've been at  https://pawgust.joshandmj.com/
