Few people can read the poem 'The Rainbow Bridge' without it bringing a tear in the eye.

Four Paws is organising a sponsored walk to celebrate the lives of the pets you have lost. Approx. 3 miles in length, on good footpaths alongside part of the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal, it is for all abilities. There is free car-parking and refreshments and toilets available at the start, finish and mid-way point. Dogs are welcome, on leads and under control please.

There will be stalls, a Treasure Trail map, face painter for children and a potter inviting you to Have-a-Go. On our display boards you can put up photos or stories of that precious pet who so richly deserves to be remembered.

A minimum sponsorship of �5 is required or �5 registration on the day. Starting from Pontymoile Canal Basin, Pontypool at 12 noon on Sunday November 16th.

Download the sponsorship form here. If you have somewhere where you can display a poster for the walk, please download one from here.
