A long, long time ago, my family fell in love with a little daschund named Fatzi. She has always remained a special part of our family and many of my friends have to come to share these same emotions. You see a wiener dog - you know who it looks like..... F-a-t-z-i! So when Kortney and Kai invited me to the Oktoberfest wiener dog races... they were making dreams come true.
I have never seen so many wiener dogs - every color, every size, long hair, short hair - it was wiener dog heaven!
While standing in line to get in, a lady approaches us about Ula (Kai's dog, a Red Blood Hound) and asks if she would like to be in the races. We had no idea what to expect and neither did Ula. Out of the gates, people booed and said she was cheating.... little did they know she would just stand there and look at people. She eventually made it to the end and although might not have won the race.. she is always a wiener in our eyes!!
(she is in the far lane wearing a pink harness)
Here is Ula with some of her competition.
Then it was off to the adult quarters of the event where we enjoyed some good beer, music and the POLKA!
And we also enjoyed ourselves a lil lederhosen!
