Bents Garden & Home is set to welcome dog lovers and their four-legged companions to its ‘pawfully’ brilliant Bark Fest.
Taking place over the weekend of 28th February, the two-day event will celebrate all things dog and puppy related.
Located in The Pet Place, Pet Café and covered walkway, Bark Fest will see dogs take centre stage across the weekend with a packed programme of demonstrations, expert advice, special offers and opportunities for owners to learn more about caring for their pets.
A highlight of the weekend will be the return of Mini Crufts, hosted by Happy Radio, which will take place on Saturday 28th February starting at 10am. The popular dog show will feature a range of categories, with prizes awarded to first, second and third place in each class. Mini Crufts categories include:
- Puppy Love (under 6 months) – 10am
- Extra-Large Breed – 10.30am
- Most Obedient – 11am
- Crowd Favourite – 11.30am
Alongside Bark Fest, visitors can also enjoy Bents’ Meet the Makers event, taking place across the same weekend. The event will see a number of Bents’ trusted suppliers in store, giving customers the opportunity to meet the people behind the products, discover new ranges, sample items and learn more about what makes each brand unique.
Throughout the weekend, Bartley Studios will be on hand offering professional pet photography, giving owners the chance to capture lasting memories of their furry friends. Visitors will also be able to engage with a wide selection of suppliers attending as part of both Bark Fest and Meet the Makers.
Said Matthew Bent, Managing Director at Bents Garden & Home: “Bark Fest and Meet the Makers together make for a really special weekend at Bents. It’s a chance for us to celebrate our love of pets while also showcasing the fantastic suppliers we work with. We’re looking forward to welcoming customers for a fun, informative and relaxed couple of days.”
Bark Fest and Meet the Makers promise a lively, welcoming weekend, offering visitors the perfect opportunity to enjoy time with their dogs while discovering new products, expert advice and inspiration throughout the store.
