Fun Dog Show 2026

The ManxSPCA Fun Dog Show is BACK! 

We’ve missed seeing your four-legged (or three!) superstars strutting their stuff around the ring of glamour, so we’re thrilled to announce that on Saturday 29th August, our Play Barn at the ManxSPCA will once again host one of your dogs’ favourite events of the year, the Fun Dog Show!

We’ve got the categories, we’ve got the prizes, and yes… we’ve even got a raffle packed with treats for both humans and hounds! So fluff those tails, brush those ears, grab the lead and your treat bag, and join us for another fur-bulous day celebrating our canine companions.

Registration opens from 12:00pm – 12:30pm, and dogs can be entered into as many suitable categories as they like for just £1 per class (cash or card accepted). Judging begins at 12:45pm, where your pups can wag, wiggle and wow their way around the ring.

Our Fun Dog Show is all about celebrating the joy, laughter and unconditional love that comes with having (wo)man’s best friend by your side

Categories Include:
• Best Puppy (under 9 months)
• Golden Oldie (over 9 years)
• Dashing Male
• Lovely Lady
• Waggiest Tail (or bum, for our tail-less beauties!)
• Best Look-A-Like (dog & owner)

We can’t wait to see you all there… although let’s be honest, we’re mostly excited to see the dogs!

Gratefully sponsored by Ramsey Crookall, proudly celebrating 80 years in business this year.
