Welcome to the 2012 D is for Doggy Olympics
Our dogs have been preparing all their lives for this moment, where they compete in a variety of activities such as running, barking, sleeping, speed eating, and many more exciting feats! We would like to share a few photos from the insanely adorable and entertaining competition!
A true athlete, Fred appears to be very serious and deep in thought. He must be going over all his training notes.
Rufus is also prepping by stretching his body.
Simon, too, stretches for his wrestling match against his fierce opponent, Tallulah.
And it's a pin for Simon! It was a tough match and lots of going back and fourth, but Simon managed to make out on top! Bringing in the gold for his fellow greyhounds. I'm sure those long legs really helped!
The rest of the dogs seem to have been very entertained with that last match, they are eagerly waiting for more.
BREAKING NEWS!
This just in, Rora the red, competing for team Golden Retrievers, has just won the gold medal for fastest dirt digger! An amazing triumph, really. Everyone banked on the Hounds taking this win.
Our cameras caught Bernie, practicing for his Hooooowwwwwl competition later that night. We haven't received the official word yet, but we are certain that Bernie took the gold for this one.
And last, but not least, in one of the most challenging events for our dogs, Mason and Mina compete in the Staring Competition. As you can imagine, this takes a lot of concentration, it can be very agonizing for our dogs.
Oh no! It looks like a tie! They both looked away at the same time, but definitely each gave it their best.
Well, our dogs are pooped, no pun intended, from the games. We'll leave them to take their much needed breaks and check back in with them later.
