Current status: Wild Dog Austria 2026 is intended for Salzburgring. Registration is not yet open.

The event

More than a time on the clock.

Planned · 23 Oct 2026–25 Oct 2026 about 250 starters planned with & without dogs

Wild Dog Austria brings movement, animal welfare, community and a transparent charity objective together in one clearly run event.

The idea

Start together. Finish together.

Wild Dog Austria is an approachable, timed running and adventure format. People can enter with a dog or without one. It is sporting, but it is not intended to be an official championship.

Timing creates a personal result; it does not decide who belongs. Children, first-timers, groups of friends and performance-minded participants should all be able to find a suitable format.

Important distinction Wild Dog Austria is an independent event and not an IFSS, WSA or federation championship race.

Four guiding principles

What Wild Dog stands for.

These principles guide the course, communication, partner presence and every decision that follows.

01 · Community

Together, not against each other

Personal performance is welcome. Respect, support and finishing together remain more important than rankings.

02 · Welfare

Animal welfare before spectacle

Dog starts are intended to use wide, ground-level and bypassable features. The binding specification follows professional approval.

03 · Access

Reduce barriers

Clear information, optional obstacle bypasses, a human-only format and direct support for individual requirements.

04 · Impact

Make the impact transparent

Entry fees and optional donations remain separate. The final charity arrangement will be published clearly and transparently.
