WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI) - Professor of Veterinary Physiology Dr. Skip Jackson started the annual event in 1969. <\/p>\n
In the past the event has always been free but this year veterinarian students are raising money for a good cause. All proceeds from the 5-K will go to PetSafe, a program that provides veterinary care and housing for animals owned by families in crisis. <\/p>\n
Veterinary student Emily Rudman and Jackson said this year's Dog Jog is a big success. <\/p>\n
\"Well, we've usually only had two or three dogs run but it's good to see more dogs this year and more people with their pets,\" Jackson said <\/p>\n
\"It feels pretty good to see it all coming together right now and seeing everybody putting their bandanas on their dogs and getting ready to race. It's really great to see everybody out here,\" Rudman said. <\/p>\n
Registration cost five dollars for dogs and $20 for their owners. <\/p>\n
Rudman said one Dog Jog participant ran with six dogs through Purdue's campus. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
