Rescue Fun Weekend to raise money for NESSR (North East)

Always a great weekend to raise money for the brilliant work that this rescue charity does, also a great way of showing off the dogs that need a home

and lets hope the rain stays off this year, thanks for the plug, i will be there once again, either judging the dog show, or putting dogs over the agility. Come say hello if you make it, and if you can't find me ask someone with staff on their back they'll point you in the right direction

awww good

Do you know if we are going to be able to put our own dogs over, as i know there is a tournament?

Plus, please feel free to add things that are happening as they come in, i know they were still waiting for a few replies off people.

Hello and Welcome from my cloudy part of Northumberalnd.
I went last year and had a really good time. My kids loved watching the sled displays.

yeh, it was really good the last time i went, and my dog loved it, even better if the weather is good helps thats its right next to the beach so you can just pop across the dunes.

what on the flyball or Agility?? its a full flyball tournament the agility you will be able to have a go. thats usually my domain

#best bit after the show is to drive thru Cresswell and get ice-cream from the fantastic shop there. They do so many flavours and its all delicious, highly recommended and very popular too

The best bit for us after we've finished at 4 is taking 40 odd spaniels down the beach (the volunteers lot) and watch them all having a great time, its quite a sight

yeh, theres loads to do , in and around druridge bay

ermmm the agility, just wondering if its a full course, because my dogs a grade 5, so i was wondering whether to bring him to give him a run

yeh i hope the weathers nice, because i'm there with a trade stand.

the only thing we don't have for the Agility is an A frame, we have a full sized dog walk, tunnel, weaves, long jump and various Jumps. i usually set a pretty simple course for the people who haven't done it before
