Escondido Humane Society 2004 Doggie Dash

The Escondido Humane Society would like to thank all who participated in the Doggie Dash 2004 5K Run and Fun Walk. Not only was it a morning of fun in the sun for all who participated, but it was also a glorious day for the animals. With your support we raised over $61,000 for animal care, adoptions and humane education. A special thanks goes out to the 200 volunteers who made this event possible. We couldn't have done it without you!
