Once again the "doggies" are back by "pupular" demand. This event has become an event people talk about all year long. In 2005, this event won the Outstanding Event Award from the Nebraska Department of Travel and Tourism. Over 150 dogs took part in the event in 2006. Three classes for the little dogs to enter--Senior Sausages, Frankfurters and Little Smokies. Entry forms are available at participating pet supply and service locations and veterinarian offices in Grand Island, Hastings and Kearney.
