What's new for 2024?
Dog and Owner Fancy Dress
New for 2024!b
Lets have some fun with a dog and owner fancy dress class. Ideally both dogs and owners will dress up buts its not essential.
Costumes can be as simple or as creative as you like. Time to get creative and have a great time.
Gun Dog Scurry
Scurries are based on a dog’s ability to retrieve. This fun activity is open to all dogs of all abilities.
Typically the format of a scurry is:
-
At the command, your dog is sent to retrieve a 'dummy'. The timer is started once they cross over the start line.
-
The timer is stopped once they cross the line again.
-
The fastest dog wins!
​
3 goes for £2.00.
Class Timetable
Please note that timings are approximate and classes may start a little earlier or later than time-tabled. This is because judging very much depends on the number of entries per class as well as unknown factors such as inclement weather.
​
We will do our best to adhere to the time-table but ask for your understanding where this may not always be possible.
​
Thank you.
