The Dog Walker Portsmouth & Dandini’s Dog Grooming are inviting all four legged friends to put their best paw forward and come along to their sponsored dog walk & family fun day event on Sunday 23rd June at Alexandra Park, Mountbatten Centre.

Pennies for the Paw will be a brilliant social event where dogs and their families can get together and walk the 6km wildlife trail from Alexandra Park through the Hilsea Lines to help raise funds for Serbia’s Forgotten Paws and The Portsmouth County Council Stray Dog Kennels.

As well as the sponsored walk, there will be lots of extra activities guaranteed to get tails wagging and keep you and your pooches entertained! A fun dog show, agility demonstration plus have-a-go-session, children’s entertainment including a bouncy castle, pony rides, games, face painting & hula hooping, refreshments and a variety of stalls offering everything from veterinary advice and dog toys to cupcakes and handbags. A pet photographer will be on site to capture the fun and there will also be a raffle with some amazing prizes to be won.

For dogs taking part in the walk there will be an entry fee of £5 per dog and £3 for each additional dog from the same family (they can bring their humans along for free)! Goodie bags will be awarded to the first 50 dogs to complete the walk. Why not help raise even more money for these worthy causes by getting sponsorship from your friends and family – please go to the events page at www.dandinis.co.uk to find a sponsorship form.
