of SAN DIEGO

On Sunday, July 23, 2000, several hundred Dachshund lovers and their dogs converged on Balboa Park for the 12th Annual Dachshunds' Picnic, sponsored by the the San Diego Dachshund Club.

The Dachshund Rescue of San Diego had a booth there, and many old friends—both canine and human—stopped by. We hope you enjoy these pictures taken on that beautiful summer day in the park.

They showed up in all sizes and colors!

Boy oh boy I love picnics!

For the last time. Yes, I'm a dachshund!

First one to the measuring cup is the winner.

Did someone say the treats are this way?

Fritz, circle the wagons!
