Registration Fee:
$18 registration fee for packet pick-up
$23 registration fee for mailed packets
***registration closes May 9. T-Shirt sizes are guaranteed through April 22.*** Sorry, we will be unable to accommodate changes to T-Shirt sizes on event day or at packet pick-up events; select your size carefully.

On-line Dog Trot Registration
***Registration includes a limited-edition 2021 T-Shirt, full-color race bib and a participation medal.
Dog Trot is a family-oriented 3K/5K Fun Run event that typically takes place in conjunction with the Petpalooza festival, held annually in May. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the Petpalooza festival will not take place in 2021.
In-person Event Details:
The City of Auburn will be taking the following safety precautions:
- Registration is only accepted on-line and closes May 9 (T-Shirts are guaranteed through April 22). There will be no on-site registration.
- A variety of packet pick-up sessions will be offered leading up to the event. You may also pick your packet up on-site.
- Face masks/face coverings are required at all times until participants enter the route.
- The event will be self-timed.
- Interval starts will be offered in groups of 25 participants, every 15 minutes from 9:00 AM until 12:00 PM. Unless we add more interval sessions, we can accommodate 325 total participants. Participants will select their preferred time at registration.
- Participants will be released onto the course every few minutes in groups of 5 or less. Please don't arrive on-site until 15 minutes prior to your interval time. Parking information and more details will be emailed to participants the week of the event.
- Participants must stay at least 6-feet of distance from those that don't live in their household at the packet pick-up and start and finish area.
- Please maintain a minimum of 6-feet of distance when passing another participant.
- No congregating in groups at the finish. Participants must leave the area upon completion of the route.
- Please practice social distancing while using the restroom. Portable restrooms will not be available.

- Unfortunately, spectators and/or any un-registered guests are unable to join you.
- Participants should not attend the event if they have a temperature of 100.4F or greater, feel sick, or believe they may have been exposed to COVID-19. Should this be the case, you can make arrangements to pick-up your packet at a later time and participate virtually.
Virtual Event Details:
Registration closes May 9 (T-Shirt sizes are guaranteed through April 22). Choose your route, choose the date and choose the time that's most convenient for you! Please note: if May 22 doesn't work with your schedule, you're welcome to find another day that is preferable.
Packet pick-up times will be available in the weeks leading up to the virtual event date. We will offer a variety of date/time options for a contact-less pick-up prior to the event. Domestic shipping is available! Only $5 extra to ship your packet. It is our goal to have items to you by the event date. Unfortunately, we cannot be responsible for mailed packages that may be lost or damaged.
Please follow social distancing recommendations and stay safe during your participation.
