A fun and popular event at the Winter Carnival is a fund raiser put on by McPaws, the local rescue shelter.  Dogs pull sleds with weights down a track, about 25' long.  The weight in the sled varies with the size of the dog.  The dog owners employee lots of tricks and bribery to get the dogs down the track as fast as possible, as there are prizes to be won.

This Corgi lives in a house with another small dog, and the two of them must like hot dogs.  The owner took the other dog to the finish line, and started feeding him a hot dog.  Now, do you see the look in the Corgi's face, he's not about to loose out on that treat.
