WIENER DOG DERBY RULES
1. Owners must clean up after their dogs! Please bring along your own “clean-up” gear.
2. Each Dachshund should bring two human assistants, one to let them go when the race director yells “go” and one to stand on the other end of the lane bribing them with food or treats to get them to the other end the fastest.
3. You may use a toy or treat to entice the dog, but you must stay at each end until your dog comes to you! The toy or treat may not be thrown or tossed. No loud devices, laser pointers or anything that may be distracting to other dogs/owners.
4. You may NOT run along side the dog.
5. Your dog may step out of bounds but must re-enter and completely cross the finish line, within the boundaries, without being grabbed. If the dog is touched by the handler before completely crossing the finish line, the dog will be disqualified.
5. We reserve the right to disqualify any pet/owner for behavior deemed inappropriate.
6. ALL JUDGE’S DECISIONS ARE FINAL.
7. You MUST have FUN!
