A trio of shows dedicated to our canine companions kicks off this weekend, in Hertfordshire.
Hailed the ultimate summer festival for dogs, DogFest is back for its sixth year, starting at Knebworth House 11-12 May.
This canine extravaganza promises plenty of paws-on action and activities, expert talks, dog displays and celebrity appearances.
Headlining the festival are The Supervet, Professor Noel Fitzpatrick and broadcaster, journalist and author Clare Balding who will lead the Great Dog Walk. Clare will also present prizes in the Fun Dog Show, with awards for the coolest pup, best rescue dog and more.

There will be a full programme of events over the weekend including dog yoga and dog aerobics on the main stage. The popular activity arena returns with demonstrations by the world’s first scent-detecting and crime solving dogs, plus the fast and furious Flyball competition.
If you need help with training your pooch, the Obedience Ring offers dog training masterclasses and a chance to test their command skills with the Obedience Challenge.
For those further afield, DogFest will be at Tatton Park in Cheshire, 15-16 June and at Ashton court, Bristol, 22-23 June.
