This year, the Club Tent will feature tutorials and demonstrations from the likes of Pup Club, Medical Detection Dogs and Jackador Dog Training.
There’ll be stalls packed with treats for both people and pets, providing everything from accessories shopping and training services to charities and delicious street food. The Big Doggie Do is organised by The Parks Trust, the charity caring for MK’s parks. Julie Dawes, Events & Community Engagement Manager at the Trust says “The Big Doggie Do is one of our most beloved annual events, celebrating our largest group of park users - dogs and their owners! It's always a weekend filled with delightful doggie fun!”
Big Doggie Do is a must-see for any pooch fan and it promises to be a paw-some time!
