The 2010 Waddle

This is the 13th time that I’ve said “It’s Waddle Time” – I’m more excited than ever.  The dates this year are September 18th & 19th in Dwight, Illinois.  If you’ve never attended, it’s really hard to describe.  Saturday, The Bash, is all off-leash at our GABR park.  During Saturday, we’ll have lots of games & entertainment but the highlight of the day will be the “Great American Basset Races” with 8 heats during the day and then the finals end the day. 

The “fastest Basset” will be awarded a gigantic trophy and will be invited back to defend the title next year.  What a sight it will be.  In order to enter the races, you need to register your family and your Bassets at www.firstgiving.com/gabr  Once you have registered and set up a Firstgiving page (yes – this is a fundraising event!), your Basset can enter.

Any Basset is eligible but there must be obvious Basset blood in your racer – no greyhounds!! 

I can talk for days about the Waddle – is there anything that you want to know about the Waddle???  Let me know.
