Hundreds of dogs and their owners will be going through their paces competing for best in show during the Horley and District Show Society Open Show.

The bi-annual show, that showcases dogs of all breeds, ages and sizes, will be held at The South of England Centre, Ardingly, on Sunday, February 21.

It is a high-profile and renowned event for families and dog lovers around the UK , and is set to attract hundreds of visitors.

Brian Ballan, chairman of Horley and District Show Society, said: “Horley and District Show Society is regarded as one of the most popular dog shows that uses The South of England Centre’s facilities.

“Our entry numbers and comments from exhibitors confirm this to be the case and this is a key reason to why we continue to only use the centre as a venue for our events.”

All group winning pedigrees will be presented with a bottle of champagne, with the winner of Best in Show presented with a magnum of champagne.

Other prizes include rosettes to all dogs placed first to third, as well as cups and trophies awarded to all those winning Best in Show, Reserve Best in Show, Best Puppy in Show, Reserve Best Puppy in Show and Best Veteran.

The show will start at 8.30am and judging will start at 9.30am, with all judging will be held indoors where there will be a range of catering facilities and trade stands.
