dog racing

What better way to spend a day than watching your pet corgi race around with other dogs, having a great time? Thankfully, there's a few folks in southern California who feel the same way. What started as a day on the beach has turned into a twice-a-year gathering on the beach as well as two days of races at one of the most iconic horse racing venues in the country.

We talked with Kelly, one of the founders of So Cal Corgi Racing about the event and all it's intricacies. Are there boxes for the dogs? How do you keep them organized? And, perhaps most importantly of all, can you bet on them?

For more information, you can check out the So Cal Corgi Nation website. You can also follow them on Facebook.

Why is dog racing so family friendly? All the dog needs to do is put it's head down and follow the bunny. Meanwhile Willy Mason drops the track side tips to Roy, always with a smile.
