Now on its fourth year, this year’s RunFurLife event is franchised by AKF to CLSU hoping to start a festival of fun for “hoomans” and their furry-friends in every school and campus nationwide.

The first  three (3) successful years of RunFurLife were held in Quezon City with an average turnout of a thousand runners, hoomans and dogs, providing AKF the motivation to stage it yearly since 2016.

The main recipients of this event are the once slaughter-bound dogs that AKF rescued from the dog meat trade.

There are at least 170 dogs undergoing rehabilitation at the AKF’s sanctuary in Capas, Tarlac.

AKF rescued fifty dogs from being slaughtered this year through a series of operations: once in January and twice in February in  Batangas and Nueva Ecija, respectively.

A terrified dog caught by dog meat traders was rescued by the Animal Kingdom Foundation (AKF) on the way to a slaughterhouse. AKF needs help to rehabilitate 150 dogs who have been saved from dog meat traders and to continue rescuing dogs.  Please contact AKF and support their fundraising event. 

All these dogs were being transported, together with a number of carcasses, to the main market in the North. All nine arrested traders were brought to court and have pleaded guilty.

The RunFurLife4-Campus Edition will  be on March 17 at CLSU campus and the participants can gather as early as 3:30 a.m. inside the university and participate in a zumba aerobics until gunstart at 6:30 a.m. The program will end with the awarding of winners until 9 a.m.
