Northville Downs

There may have been more dogs than horses at Northville Downs last night at the annual Leader Dog event. Race #4 was dedicated to Leader Dogs.

Macy, Rugby and Xiva stayed under the table as their raisers enjoy dinner and some horse racing. (Macy was yawning and NOT trying to eat the camera!)
Toby is almost as big as the horses! And Veda was the littlest pup there.

After dinner, the dogs watched the horses race by from outside, right next to the track.

Macy also watched from the grand stands.
The dogs enjoyed some attention from the racetrack guests.


And a surprise guest was the Easter Bunny!
This Leader Dog event has always welcomed dogs in training from other groups too. Below is Redford, a poodle from Paws With A Cause, Ben a golden retriever and Princess a black lab, both from FBI Assistance Dogs, and Future Leader Dog Macy, showing the different breeds used by all 3 organizations.
