Organizers say the second annual Corgi Beach Day was a huge success with more than 150 corgis competing for prizes and having a great time at Spanish Banks.
鈥淯nfortunately we did need to ask people not to come because we did get a lot of attention from people that didn鈥檛 have corgis,鈥� says Kevin Lee, a member of Corgis of B.C., which organized the event.
Lee says they plan to get a permit from the city for next year鈥檚 Corgi Beach Day, 鈥渟o that everyone can enjoy the event not just corgi owners.鈥�
The winner of the corgi race was a dog named Theo who received a prize pack from Earth Paws Pet Products. Follow Theo鈥檚 adventures on Instagram at
