Run with your pet

On 19 April, 10:00 AM at Parku i Balonave by the Artificial Lake of Tirana, Run with your Pet will bring together sport, community, and compassion in one meaningful event. This charity initiative invites runners, families, dog lovers, and all members of the community to take part in a day that celebrates an active lifestyle while supporting animal welfare.

This is more than just a recreational run. It is a call for awareness, care, and collective action to support animals in need. Every step taken during this event represents solidarity with shelters, animal protection organizations, and stray dogs that need food, treatment, protection, and a better chance at life.

Throughout the event, participants and visitors will also have the opportunity to contribute through donations and explore dedicated spaces that promote dog adoption. Run with your Pet is a day filled with energy, empathy, and community spirit — a reminder that even small actions can create a real and lasting impact for animals in need.
