October 5th – Wiener dog races
by emily on December 5, 2008
Deadwood was holding their annual Oktoberfest celebration that weekend. It included Wiener Dog races!
First there was a costume contest:
Then the race! There were several heats. Most of the dogs didn’t care too much about being the first to the other end – they were more interested in each other.
This guy won! He’d been in a few competitions before. His owner’s secret was to have a T-bone in his pocket, let him smell it right before the race, and hold it so the dog would race to the bone. It worked!
