๐ถ๐ค TIVERTON FAMILY DOG SHOW โ ANOTHER EXCITING EVENT! ๐ถ๐ค
We've just had one exciting event โ and there are more to come!
One of our favourites, the annual Tiverton Family Dog Show, takes place on Saturday 15 June.
The previous two shows have brought great joy to many and this one should be no different โ not least because it will tie in with our Father's Day awards.
The Rotary Club of Tiverton is running the dog show as usual, alongside judge Joan Kidley, and all profits will go to local charities.
GTH - Greenslade Taylor Hunt has kindly agreed to be the main sponsor for the second successive year and make a sizeable donation to the charity pot.
Bring your dogs and enter them into as many classes as you like, which include two new ones.
The winners will then compete to be Best in Show and Reserve Best in Show.
Here are the 10 classes, in time order, and the local businesses that have kindly agreed to sponsor them...
๐ถ Fabulous Fellow โ Twyford Blinds & Curtains
๐ถ Luscious Lady โ Essential Beauty
๐ถ Cutest Puppy โ Dan Rox
๐ถ Pensioner Pooch โ Home & Gifts Tiverton

๐ถ Reserve Best in Show โ Claire's Mucky Mutts
There's no need to register โ just head to the reception desk before each class you'd like to enter.
Just before the show, we'll announce the winners of our Father's Day competition.
Our Mum in a Million awards scheme last year was a great success, with around 70 mothers nominated and lots attending a presentation at the market.
Can we match that for the dads, on the eve of Father's Day?
In the coming days we'll tell you how to make a nomination.
The event will also feature lots of dog-related stalls surrounding the ring, 25 or so general market traders and food and drink on the go from Riaโs Cafe & Cakery, Devon Food Co, Crosses Ice Cream and Splendours Bar, run by Splendours Spirits.
If you're interested in booking a stall, please e-mail Jim Bray at [email protected].
