It was a normal day for dessert Ludivinea 2 year old Saint Hubert Dog from Elkmont, Alabama. At one point, however, she becomes the darling of the day for the American citizen.

Ludivine has been taken out of the house by her owner to go to the toilet and, while she usually stays in the area near the farm where she lives, this time she strays a little further.

This is because his attention was caught by the noise of the half marathon that was just starting!

An impromptu half marathon

The Bloodhound approached the starting line and, when the race began, he began to run together with runnersthinking maybe they were playing with her!

Does your dog love to run too? Let him try canicross!

Kilometer after kilometer, the four-legged dog has always run with the group at the top of the rankings. Even though Ludivine got distracted from time to time such as running after a rabbit, barking at some cows and smelling some flowers, she managed to finish the half marathon!

It came to seventh place taking 1 hour 32 minutes 56 seconds and even got one medal for his extraordinary performance!

An event in his honor

The organizers were so impressed with Ludivine’s performance and the loving attention the runners gave her that they decided to rename the event The Hound Dog Half in his honor with a dedicated Facebook page.
