Starting your day surrounded by rolling hills and the laughter of friends. For Border Terrier owners, a morning country walk offers just that. This event isn't just about exercise for our dogs; it’s an opportunity to connect with fellow enthusiasts.

A Scenic Walk with Your Border Terriers
The morning walk is not just about getting your steps in; it's a chance to breathe in the fresh air and explore the beauty of nature. In just a few hours, you and your Border Terriers will navigate winding paths and appreciate country views.
Border Terriers, known for their high energy and curiosity, thrive in these surroundings. You will see them sniffing new trails, playing with fellow furry friends, and reveling in the freedom of the countryside. You might even witness their instinctual behaviors, such as hunting or exploring, which can be both amusing and heartwarming.
Lunch and Refreshments
After a refreshing morning walk, it’s time to enjoy a delicious lunch that caters to everyone’s tastes. Upon arriving at our gathering, you will find a range of healthy meal options designed to keep your energy up for the day’s activities.
Sharing this meal with fellow Border Terrier owners creates a perfect opportunity for conversation and camaraderie. From discussing the quirks of your pets to sharing training tips, these exchanges can foster long-lasting friendships.
Guest Speaker on Safe Probiotic Technology
The afternoon features a special guest speaker, who will discuss the latest advancements in safe probiotic technology for dogs. Probiotics are gaining importance for cleaning ears, teeth and used as household cleaner without harmful chemicals, as nearly 50% of pet owners now use them to enhance their dogs health.
During the talk, you will have the chance to interact and ask questions. Getting insights straight from an expert can further empower you to make informed decisions for your dog's
Ending the Day with a Multi-Class Dog Show
To cap off this wonderful day, we’re excited to host a multi-class dog show celebrating the unique characteristics of Border Terriers. This event isn't just about winning—it's a heartfelt showcase of the bond between dogs and their owners. Each participant gets an opportunity to shine in a variety of classes, whether it’s agility, charm, or simply being a loving companion.
The dog show not only highlights the talents of these remarkable breeds but also allows everyone to experience the joy of community and fun. Winning a ribbon is a bonus, but the real reward lies in the connections made and memories shared throughout this exciting event.
