Dog Show

Experience a day of fun for you and your dog

The Festival dog event is proudly supported by Cheltenham Animal Shelter, We rescue and re-home hundreds of unwanted or abandoned cats, dogs and small animals every year.  The Cheltenham Animal Shelter has On-site boarding kennels, groomers and vets. 

We think that our canine friends should be able to enjoy the Cheltenham Food & Drink Festival so we have planned some great treats for them.

Pop by our stall for a chat with our team about all things animal and we will have some super treats for you and your pets including:

  • Enter our raffles to win fab prizes
  • Dog drinking station
  • Dog treats, poop bags and accessories
  • Information about animals for adoption

Our Amazing Supporters

Animals

Cheltenham Animal Shelter is a charity that has been helping animals since 1926.

We rescue and re-home unwanted and abandoned stray cats, dogs and small animals from across Gloucestershire.

We also take in rescue dogs from Gloucestershire Constabulary as well as rehoming dogs, cats and small animals from owners who can no longer look after them for a variety of reasons.

Small animals we often have in our care include rabbits, gerbils and guinea pigs.
