Review in Bark Magazine in January 2006
Ears flying, little legs pumping, contestants in the annual Buda Wiener Dog Races and Costume Contest speed across the grass toward the finish line. This Best in Show meets Seabiscuit documentary – an audience favorite on the festival circuit – covers all the highlights of the weekend-long event, which takes place in a city that bills itself as the “Wiener Dog Capital of Texas.” It’s all here: the costume parade, costume contest, and finally, the dash of the Dachshunds. A slice of small-town American life, the event also serves a good cause, as a portion of the proceeds goes to support the work of the Buda Lions Club and selected non-profits.
