Description
This popular portion of the annual Woosterfest celebration takes place on the festival’s Saturday schedule. Dachshund enthusiasts are invited to bring their speedy pups to dash through downtown Wooster’s streets in age-based heats, “Little Smokies” through “Knockwursts.” Beyond racing, participants show off their pups’ flair with a costume contest, with prizes for both speed and style! All dogs must be leashed before and after their sprint, comfortable in a group setting, and under handler control at all times.
