Arlington horses must wonder, 'Is this place going to the dogs?'

Arlington Park was going to the dogs on Saturday as a cabal of corgies took over the track.

The short-legged, big-earred pups, with names like Miss Maggie Corgington and Sir Porter Potato Allen the First, dashed along a grass course as part of the track's Horses & Hounds day, which showcased adoptable dogs and benefitted animal shelters.
