Mutt Strutt

Get ready for the 6^th Annual Mutt Strutt to benefit the Halifax Humane Society! You and your dog can get your paws in the sand and participate in the 5K walk on the Daytona Beach beach – April 2, 2016!

 Put Your Paws in The Sand!

The goal for this event is to have over 2,000 participants on the beach and to raise over $50,000 for the Halifax Humane Society animals. 

This is a non-competitive run or walk. Entry to the event is free, but if you register for $25, you receive a T-shirt and a drink ticket (alcoholic or non-alcoholic). Also, you and your friends can form a fundraising team to support animals in need. Publish your goals on Facebook and Twitter and link to the HHS Facebook Page 

So take advantage of the only day during the year that you can have your dogs on the Daytona beach! All pets must be leashed. 

Registration opens at 8AM at the Daytona Bandshell. The race starts at 9AM and goes till noon. You can park in the Ocean Walk Garage across A1A.

Dog Friendly? Woof!

On our Florida coast the weather invites outside entertainment and dining all year round. If you are a dog owner, you might appreciate being able to bring your pooch along for lunch or dinner, as well as to the beach. However, who really knows where you can take Fido? Better to know ahead of time than to be turned away. 

 

Beaches

If you think you can just take your dog to the beach to frolic in the waves, think again. Beach patrol will quickly inform you that your dog is not welcome. BUT! In Flagler, there is a beach where your dog can feel the sea breeze in her fur as she races along the sand and surf! Well, as long as she’s on a leash. North of Gamble Rogers State park to 13th Street South is the beach area in which dogs are welcome.

Ponce Inlet Dunes Park also welcomes leashed dogs.

Restaurants

In New Smyrna Beach, there are lots of places to bring your dog! Spanish River Grill, Dolphin View Seafood Restaurant, Third Wave Café and Wine Bar, Café Heavenly, Norwood’s Seafood Restaurant, and a few more. Moreover, you can bring your dogs to the NSB Farmers Market on Saturdays, both at Old Fort Park and at Norwood’s Restaurant.

In Port Orange you can enjoy outside dining with Fluffy at Boondocks on the river, at Hidden Treasure on Rose Bay, the popular Aunt Catfish, also on the river, and TGIF on Nova and Dunlawton Avenues.

In Ormond Beach, Lulu’s Oceanside Grill, Lagerhead’s Bar and Grill, the famous Hull’s Seafood, the upscale Vince Carter’s, and Black Sheep Pub are all dog friendly!

In Daytona Beach, the Blue Grotto is open to you bringing your canine friend. In Ponce Inlet you can visit Hidden Treasure Rum Bar and Grill (same owner as the Hidden Treasure in Port Orange) also welcomes dogs.

Your best bet is to call ahead, of course. Also check out Bring Fido for your area, which has fairly up-to-date listings of where dogs are welcome.
