Spring Dog Show was pawsome!

Published 9th June 2026

Wow, what an amazing day we had  at our Spring Dog Show!

We loved seeing so many of you, our amazing supporters, and your lovely canine companions. It was a fantastic turn-out and we had 134 entries into the seven different dog show classes which was brilliant. The judges had such a difficult job deciding on 1st, 2nd and 3rd places and have asked if we can just bring a box of 1st place rosettes to the next one!

It was great to meet so many dogs of different, shapes, sizes, breeds and backgrounds. We loved seeing former residents of L.A.A. living their best lives.

The day wouldn't have been possible without our fantastic volunteers and staff, who did everything from setting up, making cakes, taking photos, serving refreshments, parking, welcoming people on the gate, dog show registration, agility and everything else in between! Thank you you're all amazing. A special thank you goes to our fantastic judges - L.A.A. Ambassador Barrie Stephen, Chelsea Read, Sue Ablett and Becky and Nadia from Wilson Browne Solicitors and to everyone who entered. You were all winners!

Massive thanks must also go to Wilson Browne Solicitors for sponsoring the dog show and Huncote Sports and Social Club for being the perfect hosts.

Thank you to each and every one of you who supported us in any way to make this year's Spring Dog Show a massive success. It means so much to us and the animals that we've helped and will continue to help thanks to your generosity.
