Co-sponsors of the 2023 Winning Out Certificates


Having agility fun for charity

Dogs in Need Agility Society (DINAS) originally set out to provide a week long holiday show both for Agility competitors AND their dogs while raising money for worthy charities. The first shows were held at Three Counties Showground, Malvern. As entries quickly increased, the show was forced to move to the present larger venue of Suffolk Showground, Ipswich.

Emailing Service

Hayley Wilson is setting up a mail shot service for Dogs in Need where she will send out emails when important updates are added to the site http://www.dogsinneedagility.com such as proposed classes for forthcoming shows, schedules, results etc.

If anyone is interested, all they have to do is email her at dogsinneed.news@blueeyeweb.co.uk and put subscribe as the title of the email.

Camping & Golf Reminders

Reminder that Dogs In Need and YKC entries and camping close on Wednesday, 22 June. Don't forget that new for this year the YKC training must also be pre-entered and paid by the same date. All the YKC training including agility is open to non-members so don't miss out.

The inaugural and highly prestigious Dogs In Need golfing tournament entries also close on the same day. So golfers you will have plenty of time to find your balls and polish them, but don't miss the closing date or you will have to put them away - unused!

Finally all you up and coming stars, don't be shy, contact the Lovely Michelle by Wednesday, 20 July and get sewing those sequins on, so we can sort out prizes.

The Committee are looking forward to seeing you all there, and wish for a friendly and enjoyable week for one and all.
