Pets As Therapy would like to make is clear that you do not have to own a PAT dog to enter the Pets As Therapy Stakes classes.

The only stipulation is that the owner/s of the exhibit must be a member – either visiting or Non-visiting – of Pets As Therapy.

Schedules are now available for both Darlington and Leeds Championship shows, both of which schedule Pets As Therapy stakes classes on all three days.

The winner of each stakes class, on each day, wins £25 and entry into the Pets As Therapy Showdog of the Year final where the winner will receive £200 plus a beautiful trophy and the runner up will receive £100 plus trophy.

The final will take place as part of the Pets As Therapy ‘Celebration of Top Dogs’ event on Sunday 6th November.

For further information on Pets As Therapy visiting or Non-visiting membership please ring – 0870-240-1239.
