What is Cork Pawfest about?
1 -Everyone is welcome to bring their dog - we will have a photo taken of all dogs and their families as a huge group - to highlight the amount of dogs in Cork - the need for more dog friendly facilities and also this can be used to help Dog Friendly Cork in their push for a dog park. There will be a small dog show to enter and also agility fences to try your dog over.
2 - To raise a ridiculous amount of money for Cancer research and facilities - everyone will be touched by this in their life time - so what better way than to fundraise for such a worthy charity - WITH your dog.
3 - Even if you dong have a dog - there will be some bands performing - so come along - throw yourself down on the grass in the sun (Being very optimistic here) and enjoy the music whilst admiring the dogs.
