PRESS RELEASE - DOG SHOW FOR DISABLED RIDING CENTRE
The Riding for the Disabled Association’s Unicorn Centre is holding its popular annual Family Fun Dog Show on Sunday 6 October at Stainton Way, Hemlington.
Classes will be open to all dogs (and their owners) and will include sporting and non-sporting, dog who sits the longest, child handler, best ball or biscuit catcher, best rescue and waggiest tail.
This year, the Show is again kindly sponsored by Foresters Financial who is providing rosettes and prizes.
Trustee Joan Northend said, “Who doesn’t think that their dog is the best in the world? It will be a great chance for dog lovers to meet, show off their dogs in a friendly atmosphere, and raise funds for the Unicorn Centre too. We’re also giving people the chance to try out dog agility too, so it’s going to be a great day!”
She continued, “The funds raised will be used to help secure the Centre’s future. We’re entirely self-funding, so support for events like this are really important to us.”
Entries are £2 per class or £5 for three per dog, and are taken on the day from 11.00am with judging starting at 12 noon. The event will take place outdoors, but will be moved indoors if the weather is poor. There is ample free parking, and trade stalls and refreshments.
