The 3rd Annual Dogapalooza will be Saturday, September 19th at the Cowlitz County Fairgrounds (1900 7th Ave.) in Longview, WA. In 2007 we presented the 1st Annual Wiener Dog races at the Cowlitz County Fair. It was a HUGE Success with 98 participating dogs and over 450 spectators. So in 2008, we created the 1st Annual Dogapalooza on a Thursday at the Fair, and it was an even bigger success, with over 1,000 people, and hundreds of dogs. In 2009, we got a Saturday, a big grassy field, and got twice the turnout! We can’t wait for 2010!
