Well, halleluah, the race is cancelled!
So who up there is going to get their arse off the couch, and get those dogs off those chains (they're so short you can hardly call them chains, maybe "chokes.")
Bert Jansen, secretary treasurer of AISDA says he cares for the dogs more than anything else. "I get tears in my eyes when I watch these dogs wanting to pull," he says.
Maybe he could chain himself to the dogs and run along with them, until they've had their fill of pulling him.
