Meet Asher, he is a 2 and a half year old dachshund. What makes Asher so special is that while as happy and energetic as any other puppy, he is also competing at the highest levels (his owner calls him a “little Schwarzenegger”) of dachshund competition–a fun and social race known as the Weiner 100 held annually at Pennsylvania’s Kennywood amusement park. Asher manages to pull all of this off while being disabled from birth in not being able to use his back legs. His owner has bought him a specialized wheelchair. It was the first time a disabled dachshund participated in the long history of the event. Asher finished the race but did not come in first place, he was however the fan favorite for the day!
