Is your pooch ready to smooch?

As part of the Queen’s Park Gardens Festival on 1st August 2015, and supported by the Queen’s Park Community Council, a dog show is being organised by the indefatigable Crissie of Canine Culture.  There will be rosettes and prizes.

If you want to be in with a chance, your dog must be on a lead and you MUST register for one of the categories:

  • Pup Idol
  • Ms Diva
  • Mr Slick
  • Best Rescue

Registration is between 11:30 am and 12:00 pm with the show beginning at 12:00 pm.

After 1:30pm all local owners will have the chance to get their dog micro-chipped for FREE in the same area. This will soon be a legal requirement so don’t miss the opportunity.
