Adopt A Walking Buddy: Weekend Adopt-a-thon Sponsored by North Shore Animal League and Weight Watchers

You can strike one more excuse from the list of why you can't start, continue or ramp-up your walking (!!!) as you read this from North Shore Animal League and weight management resource extraordinaire, Weight Watchers.

Hundreds of shelters from coast to coast are joining North Shore Animal League America (NSALA) and Weight Watchers to promote the Walking Buddy Adoptahon on the weekend of October 27-29.

The League has also partnered with 1-800–Save-A-Pet.com, North America's largest non-profit pet adoption website, and more than 475 shelters. You can easily search online for a new walking buddy and thousands of animals are expected to be adopted over this 3 day weekend.

Find out how to Adopt A Walking Buddy during the adopt-a-thon! On the site you can click, "find a participating shelter near you" and read the featured article, "Why Exercising is More Fun with a Four-legged Friend."

Hey, and if you actually end up adopting a walking buddy, would ya' please let Walktopia know! We'd love to see a snapshot of you and your new walking "coach".
