I took the photograph above of the December Mutts of the Month at the Port St. Lucie International Fest that took place a few weeks ago. The dogs were participating in a dachshund dog race, but when the race started, the dogs started running toward me instead of the finish line. Were they thinking I had treats to give them? I was standing by the gate into the field where the event was taking place, and so perhaps they were simply not into the race and were heading for the exit. Of course, it was readily apparent that the owners did not do nearly enough - or perhaps any - training with those dogs, which also explains a lot. And I couldn't help but notice that there were a lot of non-dachshunds in the various races. Is that even legal in a dachshund race? No matter - as long as they posed for a photograph, I was happy.
