Bring along your furry friend and enter the doggie scavenger hunt that will take you and your pal through town looking for clues. Each participating team will end up at Dorsey’s Dog House and the first to collect all the clues will receive a doggie goodie bag and a blue ribbon.

In 1885, U.S. Mail Dog Carrier “Dorsey” had a 3-mile route that led him up and down the mountain from Calico to Bismark. A special mailbag and leather booties were custom made for Dorsey. Dorsey retired in 1886 and was given to the Bismark mine owner and later moved to San Francisco.

The border collie has been memorialized by both Kenny Rogers in a 1972 song and by Walt Disney in a TV movie in 1974.
