Doggy Summer Show Returns After Washout

A dog-themed summer show in south Lincolnshire that was rescheduled last month owing to stormy weather returns next week.

Jerry Green Dog Rescue rescheduled the event to take place on Sunday 14th September between 11.30am and 4.30pm at Marsh Lane, Algarkirk, Boston, PE20 2BB.

The event will feature a fun dog show, agility demonstrations and the rescue dog walkabout. It’s only £1 entry per adult and under-16s are free.

“We’re really pleased that our event is still going ahead, even though it’s a bit later than we originally planned,” said Jo Hickson, Centre Manager for Jerry Green Dog Rescue.

“Thanks to everyone who happily rearranged including the stallholders selling dog treats, dog toys, Christmas cards, calendars and much more. A live acoustic duo will also be performing.

“A kids’ activity zone will keep little ones entertained and teach them about dog body language and behaviour, there will be colouring in competitions, educational games and a chance to make treat boxes for the rescue dogs. Children can also have a go at scanning Cindy the stuffed dog to learn about micro-chipping.

“People who don’t have a dog can meet some of the rescue dogs looking for a new home and visitors can relax with a choice of hot or cold food in the BBQ area offering hand-made cakes, a sweets stall and drinks – fingers crossed for better weather,” she added.

Notes to editors:

Jerry Green Dog Rescue was founded in 1961 in Broughton, Lincolnshire and is now one of the UK’s largest dog rescue charities. It has rescue centres in five locations:

• Gilberdyke, East Yorkshire
• Blidworth near Mansfield, Nottinghamshire
• Broughton near Brigg, North Lincolnshire
• Algarkirk near Boston, Lincolnshire
• Thirsk, North Yorkshire

Jerry Green Dog Rescue has a caring ethos which puts the dogs in its care at the centre of everything it does. It also operates a policy whereby prospective adopters are introduced to dogs in a neutral environment away from the kennel, resulting in less stress for the dog and increasing the chances of permanent homes being found.

The adoption process at Jerry Green Dog Rescue involves a number of introductory visits and the rehoming team provide pre and post adoption support to ensure the move to the dog’s new home is as smooth as possible.

The charity receives no Government or National Lottery funding. This means it is dependent on the generosity of public and corporate donors/sponsors.
