Default Weiner Dog races at Los Al

We went to the Weiner dog races last night at Los Al and the place was standing room only. The paid attendance was 8,400, but everybody under 18 was admitted free and there must of been 20,000. Good for racing and we got such a kick out of the program that we have made plans to attend next year.

I understand that they had a ringer DQed for being part Cocker. Hell of a good time between races.

Oh good you were there. Who won the nationals, I think it was Max, or maybe Snopsi I know Sally got beat in a heartbreak.
And what was the deal with Kiwi and others in that race that were not certifiyable doxies. They never explained the dq.

No betting on the dogs, too bad.

Max was the winner and we had Max at our table after he won his first race. Alot of the runners were walking the around the facility while waiting for their races. Alot of laughs.

At steeplechase meetings, we have terrier races with Jack Russels. A real hoot. They are competitive little suckers and some virtually fly over the 'fences' on course. (Those of you who have had terriers know how they can levitate.)
