Dachshund Dash 2019

It’s not called the Melbourne Cup of dog racing for nothing! It’s grown (the numbers of dogs racing, not the actual dogs) to 100 speedy canines madly dashing, leaping or sniffing about to the finish line. Cheer along as the scurrying sausage dogs, most with more heart than sense of direction, and their equally enthusiastic owners, battle it out for the title of top dog.

Head along for a BBQ breakfast and doggy games before the race gets underway at 10.30. Don't miss the super-cute novelty races also!
