So this is the list of Alternate Winter Olympic Sports.
I’m not sure about that last one, I’m not sure that RSPCA, or any other animal rights charity are going to let us put horses on ice. In ice skates, or on skis. They might right too. Mores the pity.
I was also thinking about some sort of sledging competition, with animals that weren’t dogs. Cats maybe, but then, if it takes about six dogs to pull a sled, it’ll probably take a few dozen cats. Which would be hilarious, but again, can’t see the RSPCA going for it. Unfortunately.
