There are many ways you can get involved…
WALK
Dog walks are at the heart of Schnauzerfest. It’s how we started. Our supporters arrange walks in aid of the charity with friends and family through the year, with lots taking place in October the traditional month of Schnauzerfest
DONATE
No matter how big or small every donation makes a difference.
You can give once or monthly.

LEARN
By becoming more aware of the truth of what goes on in commercial dog breeding (aka puppy farming) we can all help others to make better decisions.
Knowledge is power.
