why this man walked 38 dogs all at once

Guinness World Records titles aren’t just reserved for feats in sport or daredevilry. Some of the most ordinary activities you can think of could be a competitive category, case in point, most dogs walked simultaneously by an individual: 38.

Mitchell Rudy, a dog lover from Canada, showed that it's possible to lead more than three dozen pooches on a leash for one kilometre. In doing so, he surpassed the previous best record for walking most dogs.

In September, another Guinness attempt, which took place in Chungcheongbuk-do, South Korea, was recognised for 36 canines walked all at once.

However, it wasn’t just his one-upmanship that motivated Rudy to better that record by two more. The unique spectacle was part of a joint campaign by BONK, a Canadian charity and Korean K9 Rescue, from South Korea.

All the dogs that accompanied Rudy on the walk are rescues awaiting adoption.

“All of these dogs, some of them are from the puppy mill industry, some of them are from former meat harvesting areas," he explained.

“These are dogs that have been rescued by KK9R but also other agencies inside of Korea.”

In January, South Korea brought in new legislation to ban dog-meat consumption by 2027.

“We did not have a lot of time [to train them] but since our dogs had a strong foundation, we were able to really accomplish a lot in a short amount of time,” Gina Kim-Sadiku, Executive Director, Korean K9 Rescue, told Guinness.

According to Rudy, the inspiration for the walk came from an adoption campaign seeking to have as many dogs rehomed as is possible, within a short period of time.

He said the idea behind his Guinness attempt was to officially make the 38 dogs “the champions that they are.”

The canines involved were all co-operative, managing to resist taking off throughout the attempt, which was one of the qualification conditions.
