Hi. My name is Viva and I am eleven years old.  Recently, a special dog in my life passed away and she was very dear to my heart.  That is part of the reason why I am doing this fundraiser- so dogs like her can have a good life and feel like they are loved.  Last year, I raised money for this event with my dog, Lady (she is NOT the dog that passed away).  On top of all that, I just really enjoy participating- I think it is a really awesome cause. Lady and I are really exited for the Walk.  I hope I raise even more money this year!
