Best Dog Rescue
Buckham Fair Best Rescue /re-homed Championship This Championships was started in 2012, from an idea of Mrs Diana Clarks’ and with the help of Mrs Rosemary Young the competition was launched. Both ladies support the re-homing of dogs to give them a second chance to have a good life. Diana says “Every re-homed dog is a winner”.
Qualifying classes are held at local dog shows throughout Dorset/Somerset and Devon and is open to every dog/bitch pedigree and cross breed. The Judge awards up to 4 qualifier tickets for entry at the Buckham Fair Pony and Dog Show Championship. Qualifying tickets are not necessarily given for the saddest story. Judges take into consideration the condition of the dog, depending on time of ownership, problems faced by the new owners, any retraining that has been undertaken, and what the dog has brought to both owner and their family.
It is kindly sponsored by Girling and Bowditch our local Veterinary Surgeons and Kittson and Trotman Solicitors As the popularity of the competition has grown they have been joined in 2015 by Jackson-Stop and Staff Local and National Estate Agents. With the help of these 3 sponsors we are able to offer prize monies to 6th place.
