Pig, Duck and Goat Races

The pigs, ducks, and goats from Pleasure Valley Farm in nearby Adell, WI, entertain audiences with four shows daily during the Dodge County Fair. The racing pigs and other farm animals are the main attractions at the Laux family farm during the pumpkin season. Their debut show at the Wisconsin State Fair was a huge success, and they have performed at several county fairs since 2013.

The racing animals don’t require extensive training to participate. As soon as they’re taken out of their trailer, they instinctively know that running around the course quickly means they can return sooner to their cool and comfortable temporary home. Other racing animals include ducks and Nigerian Dwarf goats from West Africa.

All shows are free with paid gate admission to the fair. Gather your friends and family for the show, and feel free to share this event on social media or via email!
