Here come the dogs!

We all know dogs and their love for sports, and aren’t we glad to see them participate in the first ever Rio Dog Olympics. Dozens of dogs of different breeds, ages and sizes competed for medals at a private dog club in Rio. The events included agility, aquatic ball chasing, and aquatic jumping.

The games aim to bring together the pets and their owners to socialize with each other. The competition was open to all dogs regardless of skill or experience. Mima, a nine-month-old beagle, won gold in aquatic jumping!

About Hildene

The Lincoln Family Home

His father was born in a log cabin and called from the humblest rank in life to preside over our nation during the most momentous period of its history. One generation later, Robert Todd Lincoln, the only child of Abraham and Mary Todd Lincoln to survive to adulthood, became Chairman of the Pullman Company, the largest manufacturing corporation at the turn of the 20th century. He built his Georgian Revival mansion in 1905 in the scenic village of Manchester. It became home to only Lincoln descendants until 1975, longer than any other Lincoln residence. It is the Great American Story.

We are a federally designated 501(c)(3).
