Wiggle Butt Races? Have a Fun Day of Cuteness Overload!
Wiggle butt races return to Canterbury Downs in Shakopee, MN on Sunday, July 30th! That's right the Corgi races are back. The late Queen of England famously favored this breed. In total the Queen owned 30 Corgi's during her 70-year reign. And it's no wonder why, they are super cute especially when they run and their little butts wiggle all the way.
According to Canterbury Downs website:
The wiggle butt racing returns to Canterbury Park! Watch adorable Corgis dash down the track on July 30 for our annual Corgi races. Enjoy a fun and friendly competition between horses races. Corgis racing for a chance to advance to the “best in show” competition and dog race finals on September 3, which will have all breeds returning to Canterbury Park for the ultimate dog racing experience.
Corgi races will be throughout the live racing day on the main track. No outside pets allowed.
