Almost time for the 2013 Doglympics!

February 23 it's time for the fifth consecutive Orlando Doglympics. Everyone has an opportunity to shine and win an award, and there's everything from a Lure Course to Obedience Baseball and Peanut Butter Licks! 

A number of rescues will be there to show off adoptable dogs, Florida Service Dogs will be there, and a number of vendors offer their products.

This year, the event serves as a fundraiser for the Doglando Foundation - an educational organization that promotes responsible dog ownership - and the arrangers expect some 6,000 visitors.

If you want to check it out, it is at 3702 Avalon Park E Blvd in Orlando, FL, between 9 AM and 4 PM.

Admission is free, and dogs are welcome.
