This year’s Derby had a charitable bent; the teams cooperated with FRBUL, a Czech organization that rescues and shelters French Bulldogs with disabilities.
Ahead of the main match, Slavia released this adorable video footage of two opposing teams of excited Frenchies “playing” a mock game of football on the pitch.
The video was made to raise awareness for the disabled dogs who suffer from rare health problems due to genetic defects and draw attention to unscrupulous breeders.
