“Barking for BTRC” Dog Show 2025: And the winner is…
What a Day!
A huge thank you to everyone who came out to support BTRC and our Brain Tumour Research Campaign Annual Fundraiser – especially those who brought along their furry friends to make Barking for BTRC extra special!
Despite a mix of sunshine and showers, Team BTRC and our amazing participants powered through with positivity, paws, and plenty of tail wags. It turned into one big social celebration – from big, bold, handsome dogs to little fluffy beauties and everything in between!
We LOVED all the fantastic stalls that joined us this year – from doggy treats to human treats, you truly brought joy and flavour to the day.
A massive shout-out to the amazing DJs who kept the beats going even during the rain – you kept spirits high and feet (and paws) moving!
And of course, a very special thank you to our title sponsor @picklesvet, who always brings a pop of colour, fun, and flair – plus free pet health checks! We’re so grateful for your continued support.
The photo above feature the Best In Show and our cheeky BTRC mascot (being mischievous as ever!). More pictures from every class will be live soon on our BTRC Gallery Page, so keep your eyes peeled!
Thanks again to H&F Council, our wonderful BTRC community of volunteers, and every single person (and dog!) who made the day super!
Thank you to our sponsors, volunteers, stallholders, prize givers, judges and of course the stars of the show – the 310 doggy registrants, along with their humans – all of whom helped us to raise an amazing £23,000!
