*** While the Wiener Dog Race is a fast-paced and exciting event, the safety of all dogs and their handlers is incredibly important to us. We rely heavily on responsible pet ownership and handler control before and after the race. All dogs should be comfortable in a group setting and remain on a leash when not actively racing. Any dog showing signs of aggression will be asked to leave the premises. ***
