A Tel Aviv dog daddy and his beloved pet, Shrek, won the 3k run in the city's first-ever Doggie Run. "It was a short race for her," explains Anatoli, Shrek's owner. "Usually she runs about 10 kilometers a day."

Tel Aviv is a city of dog lovers, making it a natural spot for a canine marathon of sorts. See the variety of pets and owners who turned out for the run - including a group of vision-impaired men and women with their newly trained guide puppies, and a police dog named Ochi with his handler.
