What a weekend! On 3 and 4 October 2026, we welcomed dogs and their people to The Canine Hub in Oakley for two days of fun, friendly competition and fundraising.

Two days of FunFest memories

Saturday brought our Charity Agility Show, with handlers and dogs enjoying agility, jumping and steeplechase. On Sunday, it was time for the Fun Dog Show, have-a-go activities, traders and plenty of opportunities to enjoy a day out with our dogs.

£2,600 raised for animal charities!

Thanks to everyone who took part and supported the weekend, we raised a wonderful £2,600 for Spaniel Aid UK, Many Tears Animal Rescue and Animal Helpline.

A huge thank you to our volunteers, judges, trainers, traders, everyone who donated raffle and auction prizes, and every person who entered or came along. We couldn’t have done it without you!
