Get ready for a howling good time at our Independence Blvd. location on October 13th at 1pm for the Hallo-wiener Dog Race! Come watch these speedy little racers zoom to the finish line or enter your own fast and fur-ious dachshund for a chance at some garden-themed prizes! Before the big race, we'll kick things off with a costume contest—so dress your pup in their spookiest attire. Once the costumes are secure, it’s time to hit the track and see who will claim the title of Fastest Hallo-weenie on the Block.
