Lucky's Mutt Madness to host adoption event at Equip Exposition

September 14, 2022
dvm360 Staff

Plus, inaugural Mulligan's 5K Fun Run and Walk to support the Kentucky Humane Society

Lucky's Mutt Madness, a national dog adoption event organized by the TurfMutt Foundation and held in partnership with the Kentucky Humane Society (KHS), will once again be held at Equip Exposition, the international landscape, outdoor living, and equipment exposition. The event will take place Thursday, October 20, 2022, from 11 AM to 2 PM during Expo, at the Kentucky Exposition Center (KEC) in Freedom Hall.

What’s more, Equip Exposition is holding Mulligan’s 5K Fun Run and Walk for its registrants. Sponsored by Ariens, the event begins on Wednesday, October 19, 2022, at 7:00 AM enabling participants to venture across the Ohio River over the renowned Big Four pedestrian bridge before Expo’s door opens. Proceeds from the event benefit the Kentucky Humane Society.

"We look forward to starting off Expo right with a little exercise before the trade show door opens," commented Kris Kiser, President and CEO of the TurfMutt Foundation and the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI), which owns Equip Exposition, in an organizational release.1 "And the view is spectacular from the bridge where we'll be running or walking. It's not to be missed."

According to the release, Mulligan's 5K Fun Run & Walk is named after Kiser's rescue dog, Mutt Mulligan, the spokesdog for the TurfMutt Foundation. This pup was adopted at Mutt Madness in 2019.

"Over the last few years over 40 dogs have found homes through Mutt Madness," added Kiser. "Nearly every dog available went home with an Expo attendee last year." He aims to see this happen again this year.

Additionally, at Lucky's Mutt Madness, the TurfMutt Foundation will grant a $10,000 check to the KHS to support its significant contributions to animal rehabilitation, rescue and adoption, which have played a key role in TurfMutt from its initiation.1

"Equip Expo is bustling with energy – and that excitement will spill into Lucky's Mutt Madness," shared Kiser, in the release. "For the dogs, Mutt Madness helps them find a home. For the landscapers, dealers and manufacturers who attend Expo, adopting an animal friend fits with their outdoor life. After all, these are the people who create the outdoor spaces America relies on. And who appreciates the family yard, parks and other community green spaces more than a dog?"

The TurfMutt Foundation has also renewed its partnership with Mission Unstoppable and Lucky Dog on CBS, with filming starting this fall at Lucky's Mutt Madness. "We couldn't be happier that Lucky Dog will film at Mutt Madness and bring attention to our dog adoption work," concluded Kiser.
