Corgis race, bark and sniff their way to glory at a growing international race

The fifth annual Corgi Race Vilnius took place in Lithuania’s Vingis Park, featuring 150 participants. The event extended beyond a traditional sprint, incorporating a costume parade and contests for the "smartest nose" and loudest bark.

During the competition, owners employed various tactics to encourage their dogs to complete the course, including the use of toys, treats, and household items like brooms. Many participants prioritized social behavior, such as sniffing the environment, over competitive speed, highlighting the lighthearted nature of the international gathering.
