Third time's a charm...
We can’t believe we’re already approaching our THIRD annul Dog Show! Taking place on Sunday 13th July and we will once again be welcoming you and your beautiful pooches for a day of prizes, fun, food, and more!
Our event field will be packed with a diverse range of local small businesses and crafts people, dog focused stalls, tasty treats, food, drink, and family fun including bouncy castle, face painting, and more.
Of course, the dogs are the focus, and the dog ring will allow them to take centre stage as they show off their cuteness, elegance, and even a trick or two! With lots of prizes up for grabs, including the coveted Best in Show award trophy, this will be a day to celebrate our furry friends, and how much they mean to us!
On the day:
- Dog Show with prizes! 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places
- Stalls from local businesses and crafts plus dog related products and services
- Grand Raffle for Dorset County Hospital Children’s Services

“We had a such a great time with our boy Hewy. Lots of doggy stalls and so great to see Dorset Dogs there too. Our boy won 3rd Place in Best Rescue 🥉 The judges were lovely and allowed Hewy to have some extra space in the ring, this was very much appreciated. The people in the Registration Tent were so helpful and just really nice to us. Thanks for a lovely time out with our special boy”

Raising funds for local services.
Earlier this year, we announced Dorset County Hospital’s Children’s Services as our Charity of the Year. We have committed to fundraise as much as possible for Kingfisher and SCBU wards at the hospital, and The Children’s Centre and Children’s Care at A+E at the hospital too.
At the Dog Show, we’ll be hosting a grand raffle with some brilliant prizes up for grabs, with donations from local businesses, and those who are joining us for the event. All funds raised go directly to support these vital services.
If you’re joining us on Sunday 13th July, be sure to visit the raffle stand! If you’d like to make a donation for a prize, please reach out to us.



Join us as a stall or family entertainment!
While we have lots booked in to the event field already, we do have some space left for a few people people to join us. If you’re a local business, crafts person, or can offer family fun for the day, please reach out and let us know! events@walledgardenmoreton.co.uk
(Please note, the event takes place outdoors, and stalls are required to provide their own tables, chairs, and cover from the weather such as 3x3m gazebo. More information can be provided upon further enquiry. Thank you!)
