Sun Shines On Ability Dogs 4 Young People Fun Dog Show

The Ability Dogs 4 Young People Fun Dog Show, held at the charity’s training centre on

Sunday, was a huge success, with supporters turning out in force to enjoy a fantastic

afternoon of fun.

Visitors and their four-legged friends took part in a wide range of classes, from 'Handsomest Hound' to 'Waggiest Tail', celebrating dogs of all shapes and sizes.

The focus of the show was most certainly on ‘fun’ — with owners impressively colour-matching their outfits to their pooches, while others wagged their tails with all their might to impress the judges.

With rosettes and dog treats a-plenty, the energy and enthusiasm were most definitely rewarded.

Alongside the show ring, there were stalls, games, and delicious refreshments, creating a

lively and welcoming atmosphere for all.

With the sun shining throughout the afternoon, the event proved to be a wonderful community gathering, bringing together dog lovers from across the Island.

Thanks to the incredible support from everyone who attended, the event amazingly raised

£1,200 for the Charity.

These vital funds will go directly towards the training and care of the ever-growing fleet of Ability Dogs.

With more than 120 dogs across all stages of training and qualification, Ability Dogs 4 Young People maintains its lifelong commitment to recipients — supporting every financial aspect of each dog’s working life, and never falling short on its promise to ensure every dog receives the very best care, love, and attention.

Behind every Ability Dog is a dedicated team of volunteers, staff, and trainers.

The Fun Dog Show was a brilliant opportunity for the public to meet the team — both the humans and the dogs — and to find out more about the impact the charity has made across the Island.

A Fun Dog Show will also feature as part of the Charity’s Gala weekend celebrations, taking place on the 7th and 8th of June.
