Notice her dirty paws from the horse track
and the high-tech red duct tape securing her racing bib!

Los Alamitos Race Course
Emilie had a good run against a very strong
field in her heat. She got a great start and ran
the whole way! She was 2nd for most of the
way, but then veered left and did a little zig-
zag near the end. She finished 3rd or 4th in
her heat, in which all 8 dogs crossed the finish
line! She was in Heat #1 of the day, and by
comparison, only 3 out of 8 doxies found the
finish line in Heat #2. We are really proud of
her and, yes, she was the cutest dog there!
On Wednesday, July 5th, we went to KTLA
in Hollywood to do a promo appearance on
the Morning News program. We raced a
few times in the parking lot – 12 dogs were
there. Emilie got lots of camera time
(because she’s so cute). After racing in the
parking lot they had us all go into the studio
around the news anchors for the end of the
show, and Emmy got lots of good camera
time there, too. She got 2nd in both her trial
runs there, so ran consistently well all week.
