Rules and Regulations


Must be a Wiener Dog. – This does not mean they have to be AKC registered but sorry, no mixed breeds. Dwarfism must be displayed in the bone structure of all doxie legs. General appearance must be low to ground, long in body and short of leg.

Please be sure your dog has had all required shots for its own protection.

All dogs must be at least 4 months of age or older and have had their current boosters!

Please, no bitches in heat on the premises. Let them stay home for their own safety. 

Please keep your pet on a leash in the outdoor area at all times until it is your turn to race.

Dogs should be on their best behavior (i.e. no fighting or biting) and will be asked to leave if unruly.

Owners are required to cleanup their dog’s accidents. Plastic bags available.

All dogs must be registered, prior to racing, and owners sign “Release of Liability/Photo Release.” Owners who have not signed the release will not be able to race their dogs.

Races will be run in heats with the winners of each heat racing against the other heat winners.  

No food (human or dog) is allowed in immediate race area. Owners can have their favorite toy to help motivate their dog.

Only one handler in the race area per dog; if you need someone to help you, let us know and we will ask the crowd or get one of our staff members to assist you.

Dogs not involved in the race are not permitted within the race area; ask a volunteer to attend to your other dog while the participant races.

No selling of puppies or adult dogs of any size or breed.

Registration fee will go to paying for event supplies for Hawaii Wiener Derby and then to a dog-friendly organization to be chosen.

DO NOT LEAVE ANY ANIMALS IN YOUR CAR!! Event staff will have the right to involve the proper authorities if we feel an animal is at risk; you might want to bring your pet's travel kennel or playpen and water.


OUR MOST IMPORTANT RULE

DON'T TAKE YOURSELF TOO SERIOUSLY!!

Have Fun! This is an event to allow Wiener Dog fans to get together and laugh at our silly little (and sometimes not so little) guys! Please take a lighthearted approach at these events; we all want to have fun whether we are a Wiener, Winner, or both!!

Thanks to our friends!!
