The fun dog show for the community in 2023 was a resounding success with considerably more participants than expected. It was a great family event and we were able to include a young handler section.
The 2024 event will include three more categories and we will also have guest speakers talking about different areas of dogs attributes and areas of specialisation. There will also be a dog specialist from Best Behaviour so people can talk about their doggy problems throughout the event. There will be a few relevant stalls on site and we also aim to raise money for local dog charities.
For online registration of your dog email folkestonefestivals@gmail.com or insta applauseforpaws_ff or register on the morning of the event.
