What a truely fantastic day!
We couldn't have wished for better weather (neither too hot nor cold) and the canine display was nearly perfect! Plenty of people throughout the day came to visit and participate in many of the events and we managed to raise a grand total £1,816.
Attendance was great and so many beautiful and "well-behaved" dogs too! It was also fun to see so many younger handlers put the more mature handlers to shame. Frimley Park Radio performed a sterling job of hosting the event and the judges had (as always) the unenviable job of selecting the winners and culminating to Best in Show with Iona who is owned by Tarun Tyagi (see below) from Hook in Hampshire - well done Tarun!
Best in Show: Tarun Tyagi & Iona
We'd like to say that everyone was a winner today but unfortunately there weren’t enough rosettes and prizes for all of them!
The K9 Matters Demonstration Team overcame their nerves and put on a super display. Berkshire SAR Display Team showed us why they are an invaluable part of the emergency services. Our activity events, especially the agility, were kept busy throughout the day.
Above all, it was wonderful to have so many supporting the magnificent causes. We thank the donators who kindly contributed the prizes and/or loaned us equipment.
Everyone that helped with the preparations on the previous day went home absolutely soaked through. We are very lucky to have had such a committed bunch of volunteers that worked tirelessly in their spare time to ensure today would be a day to remember - thank you so much!
