On Sunday, more than 400 competitors, including animals and owners participated in the championship final “PerroCross 2016-2017.”
This field race had several categories, including children and dogs with disabilities, with a distance of 2 kilometers, novices with 4 kilometers and expert or relays with 8 kilometers.
It
is the second consecutive time we have exceeded our expectations and we are very happy to see that people are aiming to take their pets to spend an entertaining day,”
said Álvaro Sáenz, director of the competition.
PerroCross will make a donation to “Territorio de Zaguates”, an association that strives to give quality of life to more than 800 dogs at its farm in Carrizal de Alajuela.
Alexander Alvarado and his dog Togo and Marvin Solano and his dog Black won in the male expert category in 2016, while Gabriela Herra and her partner Figo, and Guadalupe Brenes with Rocco were the winners of the events of May and October last year.
The event was held at the Adventure Park in Barva de Heredia.
