PETCO Unleashed Chihuahua Races Sprint into Final Round of Regional Contests
WHAT:
It's down to the final five. The PETCO Unleashed (www.PETCO.com/petcounleashed) Chihuahua races are moving into their final round of regional contests, with hundreds of pint-sized racers expected to compete in five cities this Saturday for a chance to join the pack of America's fastest portable pooches.
New York's fastest Chihuahuas will gather in Valley Stream to sprint - or stroll - down a 1/18th furlong (35-foot-long) race track. The winner will head to San Diego to battle it out against 14 other regional champs in front of cheering crowds at PETCO Park, Aug. 31.
B-roll footage from the Valley Stream race will be made available to news stations.
