The local wolfdog, named Nazgul, broke away from his owner during a morning walk and snuck onto the course where he cemented his Olympic legacy with a picture-perfect finish.
Although the record books won’t show Nazgul going home with any accolades despite his efforts, there is one category where he took home the undisputed gold medal.
Nazgul started the day as just another Italian dog. He’ll end it as a #WinterOlympics legend. ? pic.twitter.com/50H3OWpa8q
