I am not sure what is included in each bag, but both fees are a donation to the Susan G Komen foundation, a very worthy cause. Can someone who has attended let us know what's in the goodie bags? I'm guessing lots of dogfood samples. Alot of the sponsors are food companies. | |

| quick questions and i appreciate everyone's help do i have to bring her food with me; since we will be there 9 to 4; or will we be supplied with food also; i dont mind giving to this great cause; however my dog was not trained to do any of these activities; will it be okay if we just walked around and watched. i think if i let her race; she will keep runing and probably run the wrong way thanks much

| This will be my 3rd year going, lots of free samples, vendors and not to mention all the different types of dogs that attend. Great time get there early to get the good stuff ! go comfortable to i always wear sneakers because it's on grass. Last year it had rained the day before so the grass was really muddy. Make sure you go comfy here is the link to one of the one's i went to http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...too-event.html

You can also register same-day (I think it's the $10 reg only). However, the lines will be insanely long, and you are not guaranteed a goodie bag. As for food, I am planning to bring London's own food in a ziplock bag, and hand feed her. Yes there will be lots of food and treat samples available for sure, but you might not want to risk exposing her to too much new food so suddenly. You may have seen some other threads about introducing new foods slowly, gradually. I would imagine there will be PLENTY of water available for the dogs. London and I will be on the sidelines watching along with you! We will be checking out the vendors (shopping!!!!), loading up on free samples, meeting the sweet rescue doggies, and maybe trying swimming. Hope you can join us! | |

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | swimming is for dogs only. morgan was not too happy with me when i dunked her in. hehehe its a great time. I leave my house at 9 to head down there because if you leave any later your not gonna find close parking. two years ago i had to park so far away and it was killing me to drag all the stuff i got back to the car. The goodie bags are heavy. i don't bring any food for morgan because we aren't there all day long, just for a few hours. But there is plenty of water available for the dogs.

| Does anyone know if you have to register to be able to race? Also, if I register for myself and my sister or BF come, would they be able to skip the line with me or we would have to wait? neither of them are sure they can go just yet.

And i think your sister or BF would have to go in the separate line to get in. My friends may or may not be coming with me but i registered for them anyway. The money goes to a good cause so it was worth it.
