Last Saturday (August 31) saw the return of the annual Thornhill Dog Show, hosted by the Friends of Rectory Park group.

The event was free to attend and included lots of fun activities for owners and their dogs, including a dog competition, a photography contest, stalls and games.

The dog competition was judged by a representative from the local animal sanctuary Millington’s Magical Barn, and a tombola and raffle also took place.

Look through our gallery of images to see some of the pets and owners enjoying the event.
