The Event & Participation
This years event will be our biggest ever and clearly the most fun with the introduction of the Sommerfest 2010 Wiener Races!

Safety and your doxie's health is our primary concern, but don't worry, we know this is all about the fun!  Participants can look forward to a full day of racing complete with entrance gift bags and great winning prizes courtesy of our sponsors.  So get that pen out or warm those fingers up because it is time to enter your doxie speedster in this great event.

  Please remember that all proceeds from this and every Dachshund Rescue of Bucks County & NJ event are applied to the rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of the breed we love so very much, so please help us help them! 

With that said, dachshund owners get ready to rev up your doxies!!!!   Click on the spinning paw to access registration.

 Description
Registration  11:00am - 1:30pm
Registration/Check-in for all participants. Limited In-person registration will be available, so register early to insure participation in this event.  Please note that certain events will be run while registration is open.  Participants and their handlers will need to check-in as early as possible for these events.
The Puppy Paddle  12:00pm - 12:20pm
OK doxie puppies, this is your chance to show us what you've got.  This is a shorter distance, 20 foot run.
The Otto Memorial  12:20pm - 12:40pm

Otto was a very special doxie that came to join DRBC at age 13 yrs and passed away from cancer at age 20 yrs.  Always up for a good chase, it was a joy to watch him run.  This 20 foot jaunt for our Senior doxies is one he would be proud to run.
Greta's Grind  12:40pm - 1:00pm
Greta has never let her spinal paralysis get her down.  A beautiful standard, Greta is handi-capable, not handicapped.  Greta invites all her wheel-cart bound friends out to join her in this 20 foot race.

This is the final!  While all our participants are winners for competing and certainly in our hearts, this is where this classic is decided.
 Award Ceremony

Get working on that winning wave, smile and acceptance speech.  Our sponsors are busy making sure this trip to the winner's circle is more than a moment to bask in the limelight. 

See you and your special doxie there!
