CVR Mutt Strut 3M

Waterbury, VT, April 22, 2001

Results courtesy of the Central Vermont Runners.

Once again the weather was beautiful for the Mutt Strutt, with sunny skies and temperatures in the 60s. And for the first time since the first Mutt Strutt in 1997, the dogs had snow to cool off in. In fact there was so much snow on the ground that we had to alter the course -- the campground was still under a foot of snow.

Tim Noonan and Gus, the only human - canine team to compete in all 5 Mutt Strutts, took first place overall in 19:42. Tim and Gus won the very first Mutt Strutt, and have placed 2nd, 3rd, and 4th in the others. Bill Lorenz and Koda have competed 4 times as have Libby Hale and Olive. John Halpin and Kim Kendall have participated in 4 Mutt Strutts but not always with the same dog. Sandy and Clay have competed in all 5, but not always with the same human.

We thank our generous sponsors: Onion River Animal Hospital, Julio's Mexican Restaurant, Guy's Farm and Yard, House Mouse Designs, and K.C.'s Bagels for the prizes and refreshments. This event would not be possible without the help of our volunteers -- Norm Robinson, Eric Ryea, Michael Chernick, Richard Cleveland, Dave Kissner, Laura Medalie, Maureen Carr, and Bob who works with Donna. Thanks finally to the runners and their best friends. Your participation made possible a donation to the Central Vermont Humane Society. See you again next year!
