EVENT UPDATE: OTS Dog Jog  

Following the cancellation of many events on campus and in our community, we will regrettably be unable to come together for the OTS Dog Jog on Sunday, March 15Although we will be unable to walk as a group, our dogs will still need a 'jog'. 

On Sunday, we challenge you to get outside with your pup (if you are able to do so) and continue to raise money to help us meet our goal of raising $14,000! Post a picture of your walk and tag OVC Pet Trust on Facebook and Twitter and/or @Ontvetcollege on Instagram using the hashtag #OTSDogJog. Prizes will still be awarded to top fundraisers, who will be notified by email. 

The OTS Dog Jog 2020 team, along with OVC Pet Trust, would like to thank all participants, sponsors and volunteers for their support.  

For more information about the University of Guelph's response to COVID-19, please visit the website.
