SUST dog charity event

games & fun for two- and four-legged friends

Regularly the SUST conducts a dog charity event called " dogs for dogs ". The animal welfare post run leads dog lovers on approx. 8.5 kilometres through the beautiful landscape around the Dog racetrack Rifferswil and Kappel am Albis. On the hiking trail, the SUST helpers provide instructive and amusing posts for people and dogs, which are solved with skill and dog expertise.

The SUST dog charity event is supported by various animal welfare organisations that contribute to making this fun course a successful occasion for people and animals. On the dog race track as well as on the track the participants have the possibility to have a snack and breaks, at the finish a tombola and sales stands are waiting.

The earnings go to various animal welfare projects of the SUST.

10th SUST charity dog military

A complete success!

For the 10th time, numerous dogs and their owners gathered in Rifferswil on May 20 to participate in the annual SUST charity dog military. In ideal weather conditions for dog-lovers, around 240 teams proved their great skill, knowledge and ability at eight posts on the 8.5 km long course. We are very happy that so many people and dogs found their way to Rifferswil and supported us with their entry fees and donations. The total income of CHF 7'220.00 will be used for various animal protection projects of SUST.

Responsible for the great success were:
