The perfect event for dogs and their owners

Paws in the Park, a dog show in aid of St Nicholas Hospice Care, will take place at Nowton Park, in Bury St Edmunds, on Sunday 20 May, featuring a host of activities and attractions.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us at Paws in the Park!

Take a look at the Paws in the Park Facebook page for some photos from the day.

Paws in the Park would not have been possible without the kind support from so many individuals, businesses and organisations. We’re so grateful to everyone who helped organise and support the event.

 

A fun day out for the whole family

There will be arenas with dog judging, dog agility and a gundog scurry, as well as food and drink stands, amusements, and trade stands.

Could your dog win Best in Show?

Join us in the dog show arena, where you can enter your dog into as many categories as you wish, including scruffiest mutt, handsomest dog and dog judges most want to take home.

Keep an eye out for Louie, who will be appearing on all the event posters and banners.
