Leamington Raceway is thrilled to welcome fans for one of its most popular events of the season—the 9th Annual Wiener Dog Races—taking place this Sunday, October 5th.

Post time is 1:00 p.m. for the horse races, and admission and parking are free, making it a perfect afternoon of family-friendly entertainment.

The crowd-favourite Wiener Dog Races will hit the track after Race 8, showcasing adorable dachshunds as they dash to the finish line in a hilarious and heartwarming competition. In addition to the canine action, fans can enjoy an exciting card of live harness racing, with wagering opportunities throughout the day.

Guests will also have the chance to win great prizes, including a gas card and an Antonino’s gift certificate.

Leamington Raceway reminds everyone that the excitement doesn’t stop there—live harness racing continues every Sunday through November 2nd, offering plenty of opportunities to experience the thrill of the races before the season wraps up.

“It’s one of the most entertaining days of our season,” says Nathan Bain, Track Announcer. “The Wiener Dog Races bring a smile to everyone’s face, and with free admission, live racing, and giveaways, it’s a day the whole family can enjoy.”
