The 1997 Bow Wow was held in Dallas, Texas in May and coincided with the annual DCA specialty. Organized by Pam Finn and Jane Manturi, this year's annual dachsie fest was short but memorable. Who will forget Lyric being taught to smoke and drink margaritas the night before she went into the ring? Who will forget Renee and Kathy driving from Minnesota to Dallas with 7 dachshunds?!!?? As for the last photo on this page...what won't these darlings do for a bronze?????? It might have been hot as Hades outside but the warmth inside was just the right temperature for this group of dachshund loving people. Frederick, MD...watch out...here we come in 1999!!
