Prairie Trotters Wellness Club

Prairie Trotters.png

Prairie Trotters Club is a walking/running club where you can take one of our Grand Prairie Animal Service (GPAS) shelter dogs out on one of 3 pre-approved trails.

These trails are designated by color and have matching paw prints on the sidewalks along the trail of the selected pathway; they range in length from 1 mile to 2.2 miles. 

By signing up, you'll not only stay active but also provide much-needed companionship to these furry friends in need. Take the first step towards a rewarding journey by filling out the form below and become a part of the Prairie Trotters Club family!
