B.I.N.G.O. de Mayo

There's never a finer time to take your pooches out for a great time than the beautiful days of May. If you're from Melbourne or just happen to be on Melbourne on the first few days of the month of May, head over to the Royal Exhibition building to see some of the most beautiful beasts you'll ever see. That is, if you're a dog lover.

Introducing the Melbourne leg of the aptly-named Dog Lovers Show! It's a three-day event that allows you to see dogs – lots of them. If you love canines, this will be heaven. 

 

As only dogs who enter the show are allowed, you may not bring your beloved pooch with you. Unfortunate as it is, you will be able to find a lot of doggy treats that you can bring home. When attending the event, you'll also get to learn more about how to be a better dog owner. Who knows? Perhaps you'll be the first few ones to attest to the fact that old dogs can learn new tricks.

Schedules and ticket prices will vary, so look at the below list for more details. You can also find this on the official Dog Lovers Show website.

Showing Off Your Show Dogs

If you’ve ever joined a dog show, chances are you are very familiar with the excitement and anticipation of showing off your beautiful show dogs that don’t only look good but are also well-behaved to boot.

This is also one platform where you will be able to showcase your dog’s skills and abilities, as well as show the world how trainable your dog is. We all know how difficult or challenging training a dog can be which is why when they obey you perfectly, you feel over the moon with happiness, not to mention the sense of accomplishment that comes with successfully training a dog.

But if you haven’t experienced the privilege of entering a dog show and want to know what it feels like, you can check out the Hunter River A&H Association All Breeds Championship Show on   15 February 2014 at the Maitland Showground Bloomfield St., Maitland. You must come if you haven’t seen a dog show before and be entertained by all the participants on show who are groomed to the max and ready as ever to show you what they’ve got. See who wins the title Best in Show and gets to trot around the ring with the winners sash and ribbons – a task that is reserved only for the top dog of the competition.
