Wilde walks with the SPCA

Wilde Fruit Juice helped out at the annual SPCA Royal Canin Wiggle Waggle Walkathon fundraising event this past November, which is South Africa's biggest dog walk. Just over 2500 pet owners and 1700 dogs enjoyed a 4.5km walk in the scenic landscapes of Tokai, near Cape Town.
If that's not all, everyone was treated to a comedic performance by renowned comedians Soli Philander and Kurt Schoonraad. After the rounds of laughter and although the rain ended the proceedings prematurely, all participants left in high spirits.

Despite the large number of pets, we were pleased to hear that there weren't any veterinary emergencies. A staggering R250 000 was raised for the Cape of Good Hope SPCA, which is sure to improve the lives of many sick and abandoned animals. Wilde was proud to be part of this fundraiser. Should you wish to join in on the exciting event next year, please visit SPCA website here and support their cause.
