For example if a dog runs first in his heat he draws into the firsts final, if second into the seconds final and so on. Up to eight dogs can compete in any one race. After the 100 metre flat heats and finals we do it again over the 100 metre hurdles.
The dog at the end of the day who accumulates the most points becomes our dog of the day. The dog who accumulates the most points over the entire racing season wins the dog of the year. Each competition is divided between the standards and tall's.
Many other prizes and ribbons are handed out over the year and there are games put on for the kids. A Lolly Guessing Competition is conducted, with the winner getting the lollies, as well as a raffle with some great prizes.
