The Port Eliot Dog Festival is returning to the Port Eliot Estate in Saltash on Saturday May 25.

Highlights of the event include the dog show as well as Roo’s Whippet Tea Party when whippets are allowed to eat a selection of dog friendly afternoon tea delights off the table. Doggie visitors can then get some exercise and have have a go at agility and flyball while their owners can browse stalls selling dog related goods and refreshments.

The event is in aid of Children’s Hospice South West (CHSW) which offers respite breaks to around 130 children and their families from across Cornwall and Plymouth and provides end of life care and bereavement support.

The charity also has opportunities for those who may wish to sell dog related goods to have a trade stand at the event. A stand costs £30 - if you are interested in booking one please contact Mary Gray at CHSW on 01726 871800 or email [email protected]
