Have you got the Best in Show?

The North East Dog Festival is pleased to announce the dog show categories for this year’s event.

Due to the success and popularity of our last dog show at the festival we have teamed up with two fantastic organisations to bring not one, but two dog shows. As a team we are committed to making sure the dog festival provides a great platform for charities.

Registration is from 10am for both dog shows so make sure you are there early to avoid missing out on your favourite class. Online forms will be available for download before the day; this is handy so you can go straight and pay for your classes.

Large classes will be split where necessary and rings will be large so plenty of space. Judges will be announced shortly. Rosettes from 1st-10th place in all classes including special rosettes. Best In Show, Reserve Best In Show and a special from each show will go in to compete in the main ring for overall Show Champion. Our Show Champion is sponsored by Northumberland County Council Adoption & Foster Care. Prizes provided by Tilly and Blue the Pet Portrait specialists.
