Our dog show this year was another huge success as we managed to raise a total of £4,381.67. We would like to thank all volunteers for all of their support and also to everyone who attended and supported us. Here you can see Lucas the Staffordshire bull terrier who won both the best WARS dog and the dog the judge would most like to take home. Here you can see the judging taking place in the novelty ring. The judge here is Ben the shelter Manager. Here you can see keira who came 2nd in the prettiest bitch. You can see Keira and her owner Dianne working every other Saturday at the shelter helping out on Reception. If anyone has any photos of the show that we can use for the website, we would be very grateful if you could email them to us. In September 2008, one of your Committee Members, Sharon Bradshaw will be taking part in the ‘3 Peaks Challenge’. This involves climbing the three highest peaks in the home nations, Scotland, England and Wales; tackling Ben Nevis, Scafel and Snowdon and doing it in the space of 24 hours! This will involve a total of 480 miles driving, a large part during the night and climbing a total of approximately 3,000 vertical meters. Sharon will be raising money for WARS and should you wish to sponsor her in this gruelling event, then please forward monies to the Shelter marking it ‘3 Peaks Challenge’. Please make cheques payable to W.A.R.S. We wish Sharon the best of luck. You can now donate online through Justgiving.com. Make a one off donation, set up an online direct debit, raise some money through fundraising or give money in memory of a loved one. Please Gift Aid your donations if you are a tax payer, as we can get an extra 28 pence for every pound you donate, with no extra cost to you.
