The sport
Canicross is a unique sport built on teamwork and fitness, for both dog and human. As founders of the Southern Suburbs Canicross Club in Cape Town, we're proud to host weekly social runs and introductory courses to help you and your dog get started.
Our community is full of outdoorsy, like-minded people who love fresh air, fun movement, and the joy of running with their dogs. All dogs are welcome, no matter their age, size, or fitness level.
In partnership
We run the Southern Suburbs Club as part of the national Canicross South Africa community, connecting local runners to events, resources, and the wider sport across the country.

This sport is especially rewarding for reactive dogs, offering them a safe outlet for their energy. Canicross gives them a "job" to do, helps them build confidence, and lets them make friends without the pressure of direct interaction.
We're also developing the sport to a competitive level, and will be hosting events in the near future.
Give them a job to do, and watch them find their joy.
Weekly social runs welcome every dog and every pace. Get in touch and we'll help you get started.
