THANK YOU FOR PAW-TICIPATING!

Thanks for PAW-ticipating in PAWGUST 2025. Together we raised $160,000 for guide dogs in New Zealand! 


How it works

1. Sign Up

It's FREE and you don't need a dog to PAWticipate! Simply, choose to walk or run and set your target (60km, 100km or 125km).

2. Howl it Out Loud

Share your fundraising page. Ask family, friends and workmates to sponsor your challenge and raise funds for Blind Low Vision NZ.

3. Get Active

Walk or run throughout August (with or without a dog) and feel PAWsome knowing you are supPAWting Blind Low Vision NZ.

Together, we can create a world where everyone who needs a Guide Dog has a Guide Dog.

PAWGUST is a FREE fitness and fundraising challenge that helps you (and your dog) improve your physical and mental health by keeping active throughout August.

Ask family, friends and workmates to sponsor you and raise vital funds for Blind Low Vision NZ.

THE Difference you can make

"Having a guide dogs means company, independence and speed. I am so much faster with Ryder." -Laura, Blind Low Vision NZ Client
