Wiener 500

Ninety-six Dachshunds sprinted down a track outside the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center in a series of races to raise money for the Washington Humane Society on Saturday in Washington DC.
The 2nd Annual Wiener 500 Dachshund Dash, organized by OnTap Magazine, was expected to raise more than $2,000, according to event officials.
After a brief rain delay, a dog named 'Pumpkin' won the final race and was crowned champion.  Way to go Pumpkin!  Via the GW Hatchett.
