Pride companion dog show
The Companion Dog Show is one of the highlights of Pride week. This year it is on Sunday 5, from noon at Hove Rugby Football Club, Old Shoreham Road, Hove (in association with the Coastway Veterinary Group). This Kennel Club registered event promises to be more fun and entertainment than ever before. Registration costs £2 per class and will be taken from 11.30am.
Entry for spectators is free and everybody is welcome. The pedigree classes will be judged by Peter Jolley; and of course everyone’s favourite, the novelty classes, will be judged by Scott Burey, better know as Brighton’s very own Drag With No Name.
For a full list of the class categories see the Pride website:

Spectators can enjoy an agility display put on by the Sussex Canine Centre, to show all those pampered pooches of yours how it’s really done!
Rings one, two and three will hold the various classes from 1pm onwards with prizes sponsored and donated by shops, businesses and Pride supporters from across the county.
The team from Coastway will be overseeing all entries, including judging. This is the seventh year Coastway Veterinary Group has organised and supported the show on behalf of Pride in Brighton & Hove.
Hove Rugby Football Club has donated its facilities free of charge. There is a bar, refreshments and trade stands to keep all owners, friends and families entertained. Entry to the dog show is free, although donations will be greatly received. All proceeds go to Pride in Brighton & Hove.
