5th May, Bath & West Showground, Shepton Mallet
As May approaches, anticipation builds for a day of wagging tails, furry friends and
boundless excitement at The Big Bark’s The Big Bark, taking place at Bath & West
Showground and now in its third year. It’s a celebration of all things canine, promising a
day brimming with adventure and delight that you won’t want to miss!
Imagine this: sprawling grassy lawns dotted with families enjoying a picnic, the aroma of
delicious street food wafting through the air, and a chorus of happy barks echoing in the
distance. Bath & West Showground serves as the ideal backdrop for our array of
demonstrations, activities and stalls, ensuring the perfect blend of entertainment and
relaxation for all our visitors. With ample parking and level access, accessibility is
guaranteed for every member of the family, furry or otherwise.
But what truly sets The Big Bark apart is its emphasis on learning and bonding with our
beloved four-legged companions. From obedience and wellbeing to training and diet, our
experts are on hand to share invaluable insights and answer your burning questions,
meaning every hooman will leave with newfound knowledge and confidence.
No doggy extravaganza would be complete without one special event: a charity dog show!
With classes tailored to suit every breed and temperament, it’s a chance for our canine
companions to strut their stuff and vie for the coveted title, all while supporting worthy
causes close to our hearts.
For our youngest canine pals, the puppy zone awaits, offering a safe haven for
exploration, socialisation and essential training games. It’s an opportunity for them to learn
and grow with their hoomans in tow, developing bonds and memories.
But the excitement doesn’t end there. The Big Bark boasts an impressive lineup of
interactive activities designed to get everyone jumping for joy (four legs or two!). From
Agility and Hoopers to Flyball and scent work, there’s something for every duo to enjoy
together, regardless of size or breed. And for those seeking a thrill, the scurry park awaits,
offering a test of skill and agility for dogs of all backgrounds.
Perhaps the true magic of The Big Bark lies in its sense of community and camaraderie.
It’s a place where dog lovers from all walks of life come together to celebrate their shared
passion, forging friendships that extend far beyond the event itself.
So mark your calendars, set your tails wagging, and join us for a day of joy, laughter, and
unforgettable memories at The Big Bark 2024. After all, there’s no bond quite like that
between a hooman and their furry best friend.
