The banner says it all - Gracie and Priscilla think all dogs should
have loving forever homes.
|
The Friends of the Animal Center organized the fund raiser. Sponsors
and vendors were seen along the route and at the end of the trail.
|
Gracie can hardly wait!
|
|
The girls sport purple bandanas. Rescued dogs wore orange bandanas!
|
We arrive just as the dogs are lining up...
|
We head toward the start line.
|
|
Wow! Other puppies are excited, too!
|
The crowd heads through the starting line
|
Hurry up, Ann!
|
|
It's great to see so many supporters!
|
Priscilla and Grace Land prepare to start.
|
Off we go! The girls race to catch up.
|
|
Priscilla stops to look at the crowd.
|
The girls join forces to catch up
|
Both girls sniff the path.
|
|
Several signs told us about the generous sponsors. Thanks!!
|
Priscilla keeps up with the younger dogs.
|
Come on, Gracie! Keep up!!
|
|
Gracie is interested in the other dogs!
|
The girls stop at the edge of the fairgrounds.
|
Look at the long line of dogs and humans!
|
|
What do you think? Should we catch the leaders?
|
The two border collies zoom past the others
|
The girls pause at a curve to check out the competition
|
|
They've raced by half the crowd...
|
...time to overtake the rest!
|
The girls put their noses down and plow on..
|
|
They move up in the pack
|
The path gets a bit muddier...
|
...the grass looks nicer to walk on!
|
|
The girls stop for another photo opportunity
|
Gracie seems a bit concerned about the other dogs...
|
...all right - let's go!!
|
|
The girls walk past the buildings....
|
....out around the open grass....
|
...and along the stands at the far end
|
|
Priscilla enjoys a drink ater the walk
|
Gracie enjoys a chance to roll in the grass
|
Priscilla enjoys a chance to visit with vendors!
