  • Of course! Well-behaved dogs are more than welcome at RescueFest as long as they’ll be comfortable in the environment. Please think carefully about bringing extremely nervous or reactive dogs who may prefer to stay home.

    We will have many animals in attendance, so all dogs must remain on leads at all times. Anyone found to be not in control of their dog will be asked to leave the event.

    As a welfare focussed event, we champion positive training methods. We cannot allow dogs wearing aversive equipment to enter the dog shows. Aversive equipment includes shock collars, prong collars, grot collars, etc.

  • Absolutely, we even have a category in our dog show just for exempt dogs!

    As above, please carefully consider whether your dog would enjoy the busy environment of RescueFest. Any exempt dogs must follow the Certificate of Exemption rules.
