TCSPCA Dog Show

K.O. was a hit with his Gabbana sunglasses

What a wonderful afternoon with dogs of all shapes and sizes, potcakes and a mixture of breeds some large and some small. The fun started at 3 pm under the tent in Turtle Cove Marina. Categories for the competition were: Best Trick, Most Original Potcake, Dog Judges Would Most Like To Take Home, Looks Most Like Owner, Most Unusual Tail, Best Looking Female and Best Looking Male. There was a huge turn out of dogs and their owners as well as on lookers enjoying the day’s events.

Sweet Cookie was very timid as she took comfort in her owner's arms.

The judges are all ready to select the winners

 

I always look forward to Peggy's millinery stylings

You can't resist such a beautiful face.......Jazz is an island potcake and you bet she gets lots of treats.

Jazz got top honours as she came in first place for the “Most Original Potcake” and second for “Best Looking Female”

Boca is an emotional support animal/therapy dog ready to help with healing those that are troubled

 

Heather Forbes of the Potcake Foundation was honoured for all her hard work in the dog and animal lovers community in the islands.

 

Donna Doran of Pampered Paws had some tough decisions to make as did all the judges

Dog obedience performance by Donna's Pampered Paws group participants. These dogs were amazing especially since they were infront of a room filled with other dogs, two legged friends and lots of distractions.
