Whissendine WI
Whissendine Feast Week Fun Dog Show 2024
The second Whissendine WI dog show was a great start to feast week. Both spectators and dogs enjoyed our afternoon on the sports field. We were lucky in that the rain held off this year and we had some sunshine but it was very windy! We had over 60 entries in the 9 classes and every dog received a rosette, whether they were placed or not, along with a bag full of doggy goodies from our generous sponsor Tails and Whiskers in Oakham.
Thankyou to all the well behaved dogs and owners who came along and to all the WI members, their spouses and friends who worked so very hard on the day – too many to mention by name.
Below is a list of all those placed first, second or third. Well done to you all and to everyone who came and joined in the fun. I hope you enjoy all the photos of the afternoon.
