    The Continental Automotive Group (CAG) is a proud supporter of Austin Pets Alive! and other rescue groups in the Austin area. Together we will continue to maintain Austin's "No-Kill" status. CAG's Austin Subaru is the proud Title Sponsor of Wagathon Walkathon once again for 2012. The Wagathon Walkathon is a 2+ mile dog walk around The Hill Country Galleria on their Hike and Bike trail. There will be multiple water stations and a couple rest stops around the track, including a refueling station at Jamba Juice and a stopping point at Dogadillo. All participants are encouraged to be courteous to others and their pets. Please remember to pick up after your pet!

    Austin Pets Alive! (APA) is a 501 (c) 3 (nonprofit) organization run almost exclusively by dedicated volunteers, and your generous donations are tax deductible. Their mission is to make Austin a No-Kill City.


    Event Recap From our First Annual Wagathon Walkathon May 15th, 2011:

    Our inaugural charity dog walk was held on 5/15/2011. We had just under 300 people register/participate and had over 100 canine friends attend as well. In total, Wagathon Walkathon 2011 raised $8750 in registrations, silent auctions, and donations. We were also able to help find at least two APA! dogs their forever home as a result of this year's Wagathon Walkathon. Thank you to all of our SWAG Bag and Silent Auction Sponsors.

    The Continental Automotive Group is very active in the community and loves supporting and partnering with local businesses in the Austin area. Dogadillo is one of the main reasons we chose The Hill Country Galleria for Wagathon Walkathon. What a perfect fit. Dogadillo is going to help with multiple doggie water stations and doggie snacks for this year's event. We are really excited to partner with Dogadillo and we hope you will check out their boutique during the event. This year Zico will be present with samples of coconut water for participants!
