A social run
with the dog as the focus!
At VOM Dogrun, both two- and four-legged participants take part together. You can run fast, or walk with the family. The race is organised in ten different locations in Norway, and the courses are set in central and
scenic surroundings. Everyone receives a participation prize, and fantastic prizes are drawn among all participants.
Bring the dog and the family on a nice
day out in nature – there are treats for everyone.
Our ambassadors are genuinely passionate about dogs
“The good collaboration with VOM is not just about people being pleasant and reliable, but first and foremost about the product itself being top-class – that is, the dog food – and it is. That is one of the main reasons the partnership has lasted all these years. I am convinced that the dogs have performed better because they have been given the best food.”
Lars Monsen
King of the wilderness
“VOM products are made from 100 % natural ingredients sourced from nature, so it’s only natural for us to feed our dogs VOM.”
Kristine and Johanne Thybo Hansen
The Hunting Twins
“High-activity dogs must have the right diet. The VOM range should be on the menu every day, whether it is for the puppies or the other dogs. I simply wouldn't dare give my dogs anything other than the best!”
Hege Ingebrigtsen
Musher
