THE world’s greatest dog show, DFS Crufts 2010, will take place from the March 11 to 14 at The NEC, Birmingham - and you could be joining them absolutely free.
With healthy, happy dogs at the heart of the show, DFS Crufts will be a celebration of the relationship between dogs and their owners, and full of events that showcase the diverse role dogs play in society.
As well as the traditional Best in Show final, DFS Crufts is host to a variety of competitions including the World Obedience Championships and the ever popular Friends for Life contest, which is full of heart-warming stories of friendship in adversity, where dogs have truly earned the title of man’s best friend through bravery, support or companionship.
Caroline Kisko, communications director of the Kennel Club, which organises the show, said: “We are very excited about this year’s event and demonstrating to our visitors how important dogs are in our lives. DFS Crufts is a unique opportunity for dog lovers to come together to make a real difference for dogs.
Visitors to the show will be able to meet and greet over 200 breeds in the Discover Dogs area and find out more about buying the right dog for them. There will be a dedicated section for breed rescue volunteers, who work tirelessly to ensure that unwanted and abandoned dogs find a good home.
Visitors will also be able to learn about Kennel Club Accredited Breeders, who put the health and welfare of their puppies first and foremost and take the required health tests for their breed.
