Wiener Dog Olympics

Get ready for the cutest competition of the year – the Wiener Dog Olympics is back at the Columbus Pet Expo, packing more fun, chaos, and paw-some action! Each day is jam-packed with multiple heats leading to exhilarating afternoon and evening finals, where the quickest dachshunds dash to victory.

On Friday and Saturday, witness two race blocks with three heats each, and cheer as the top two speedsters from every heat sprint toward the daily final showdown. Sunday keeps the momentum with one race block, culminating in the Sunday Afternoon Final. Miss a heat? No worries! The runner-up will get a shot in the finals.

The race track is a 60-foot sprint to glory, where the first furry friend past the post clinches the win. Every contender sports a complimentary hot dog costume, adding an extra sprinkle of adorable to the friendly frenzy. And the best part? All wiener racers enter for free, but spots go as fast as their tiny legs, so sign up swiftly!
