The 10th Scruffts Dog Show taking place on Sunday 20th September at the FATACIL Pavilion in Lagoa, will welcome for the first time the Association for Guide Dogs for the Blind (Associação e Escola Cães Guia da Mortagua) who have only been established here in Portugal for a few years. The show will give the guide dogs and their handlers an opportunity to mingle and interact with those visiting the show and increase public awareness of what here in Portugal is a fairly recent but worthy cause.
In addition to the guide dogs, Faro based AHCTA Search and Rescue Team will show a number of simulated “emergency response” demonstrations. Besides the 17 pedigree and non pedigree judging classes there will another opportunity for dogs and their owners to try the Agility Course organised by Margaret Gobby and also learn about “Clicker” training with Yolande Bosman.
Says APAA President Alan Camplin-Smith “We are delighted that Paws4Pets - the well known Albufeira based pet food and supplies company - has agreed to be our main sponsor; they are providing all the prizes for the 19 judging classes. There has been an excellent response from individuals and businesses such that all individual judging classes have now been sponsored, as well as there being over 25 trade stands booked for the event. With lots of entertainment planned, and plenty of food outlets, this is a day out for all the family.”
Further clarification has now been obtained from the Ministry of Agriculture on those bringing their dogs to the show. All dogs entering any of the judging classes need up-to-date vaccination papers (and these must be available for inspection by the Vets at the Show); additionally, dogs born after 1st January 2008 - and all dangerous breeds - must have microchips.
