 NEW ORLEANS-  Well this was pretty adorable. Not only was there regular horse races at the fairgrounds on Saturday; there were wiener dog races! 52 dogs raced in heats throughout the day. Some got off course, but still were pretty cute to see. There were no bets on the dogs which was all out of good fun.   But, the champion and the dogs owner got to walk away with 500 bucks and dog food!
