Dog agility and jumping competitions to be held in Alstonville
Alstonville Showground will the venue for the Northern Rivers K9 Sports Club’s annual Dog Agility and Jumping competitions on July 31 and August 1.
The event will bring more than 80 dogs from Sydney, south-east Queensland and the Northern Rivers to Alstonville.
Over the weekend they will be competing for the awards of Best Performing Agility dog and Best Performing Jumping dog.
Members of the public are welcome to drop by and watch these dogs and owners in action.
The dogs will be jumping through tyres, running through tunnels and weaving through poles, all at high speed.
Food will be available on the ground for humans and dogs, with Doggi Deli providing dog biscuits and other delicacies, as well as dog leads, blankets and dog coats for your canine friends.
On Saturday, Cathy Schafer from Parnell will be promoting their new product, Glyde, designed to help dogs suffering from osteoarthritis.
She will be happy to talk to you about any arthritic problems your dog might be having.
So make it a family affair and bring your own dog (on a leash), and watch the dogs have plenty of fun as they compete for titles and trophies.
Competition starts at 9am on Saturday and 8.30am on Sunday.
