The answer is obviously “no.” Regardless, this year’s Running of the Chihuahuas will take place this Saturday on the Southwest Waterfront.

Sponsored by What’s On Tap magazine and the developer behind The Wharf, the race begins at noon and will feature 96 (!) Chihuahuas. (This should not be confused with the Dachshund Dash For Charity.) The $20 competitor fee benefits various animal charities. Interested owners can register their dog here.
