Pooches in the Park 2024
Pooches in the Park, Sunday 15th September: A Wet and Wonderful Day with Our Furry Friends
It rained. And then it rained some more. But that didn’t stop the wagging tails and muddy paws at Pooches in the Park 2024! Despite the downpour, the event was a success, proving that neither dogs nor their humans are afraid of a little (or a lot of) water.
Event Highlights
The event was a resounding success, thanks to the enthusiastic participation of the local community and the dedicated efforts of our volunteers. Highlights included a variety of engaging activities such as:
Fun Games and Competitions: From agility courses to golden oldie pooch contests, there was something for every dog and owner to enjoy. The friendly competition brought out the best in both pets and their humans, creating memorable moments of laughter and camaraderie.
Charming Stalls and Vendors: The park was filled with a diverse range of stalls offering everything from gourmet dog treats to pet accessories. Attendees had the opportunity to browse, shop, and support local businesses while indulging their pets with delightful goodies.
Supporting Thornberry Animal Sanctuary
One of the most rewarding aspects of the event was the opportunity to support Thornberry Animal Sanctuary. As a charity dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming abandoned and neglected animals, Thornberry does incredible work in providing shelter and care for those in need.
All our proceeds from Pooches in the Park went directly to Thornberry, helping them continue their vital work. The generosity of attendees and participants will make a significant difference in the lives of countless animals, ensuring they receive the care and attention they deserve.
Competition Winners Announced

Looking Forward
Pooches in the Park 2024 was more than just a day out; it was a celebration of the love and joy that dogs bring into our lives whilst supporting this fantastic charity. We are grateful for the community’s support and participation, and we look forward to making next year’s event even bigger and better.
