Novelty Dog Show & Fun Day Out for all the Family

INGATESTONE, U.K. - Aug. 19, 2024 - PRLog -- Remus Horse Sanctuary will be opening its gates on Sunday 1 September from 1-4pm to welcome visitors for its Novelty Dog Show and Family Fun Day. The Dog Show will commence at 2pm with bookings taken from 1.30pm.

Open Days at the Sanctuary at Little Farm, Buttsbury, near Ingatestone, are a lovely way of meeting the rescued animals and learning more about the important work provided by the charity.

The Sanctuary offers free parking on-site, with disabled access, and admission is charged at just £7 for adults and £5 for children. Cream Teas can be booked in advance for £15 per person, including entry. And all dogs are welcome on a lead.

The popular novelty Dog Show includes fun classes such as: Bad Hair Day and Best Sausage Catcher, along with the more meaningful: Dogs with a Disability (such as blind, deaf or with a life-changing illness) and of course, the ever-popular Best in Show. The 1st - 6th winners will each receive a rosette and class entry is £2 per class, payable on the day.

These events at the Sanctuary are always fun and interesting for the whole family, with a children's entertainer, live music and sing-a-long entertainment, delicious refreshments, lots of stalls, a tombola and a raffle. Mickey Mouse will also be making an appearance as the guest star!

The Open Days are a vital source of fundraising for the charity which, due to its location on greenbelt land, can only open to the public for a limited number of days each year.

Sue Burton, founder of the Sanctuary says, "Our novelty dog shows offer a different dimension to our Open Days and we always look forward to inviting visitors to come and visit the Sanctuary and learn more about what we do here.

"Young and old always have such a great time. They get to meet some of our amazing animals and we give them an insight into the valuable work that we do in a fun and relaxed way."
