Scruffts 2010
Scruffts
is the UK's largest competition exclusively for crossbreed dogs,
attracting over 1,000 entries every year.
We are really delighted
to be supporting Scruffts, which so many people and their dogs look
forward to every year. In our view, a happy healthy dog needs to be
fed the best to perform the best – and we’re looking forward to
meeting all the contenders this year. Visits the Scruffts website for further
competition details and previous winners.
The competition provides
great fun for dog owners as well as the opportunity to experience
the excitement of competing.
There are four fun dog classes to enter:
Most Handsome
Crossbreed Dog 6 months – 7 years
Prettiest
Crossbreed Bitch 6 months – 7 years
Child’s Best
Friend 6 months – 12 years (handled by a young
person between 6 and 16 years of age inclusively)
Golden Oldie 8
years plus
Judging
Judges take into account
the importance of dog training and responsible dog ownership, and
will judge the entrants on good character, health and temperament.
Rosettes are awarded to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd positions in each
class, and each dog that receives a 1st place is eligible to
compete in the final at Discover Dogs, which will take place at the
event in November 2010 at Earls Court, London.
How to enter
There’s no need to
register or enter in advance; just simply turn up on the day at any
of the heats listed and you too could dazzle the judges. Entry to
each class is just £1 and all the money raised goes to the Kennel
Club Charitable Trust to help ‘make a difference for dogs’.

Dogs for the Disabled gets Wellbeloved support
Here at James
Wellbeloved, we've always been so impressed by the work that Dogs
for the Disabled does, so it gives us great pleasure to announce
that we will be partnering with them.
The partnership -
announced at DFS Crufts 2010 - will enable Dogs for the Disabled to
create greater awareness of its work, and Dogs for the Disabled
puppies, dogs in training and fully qualified assistance dogs will
now enjoy a naturally healthy James Wellbeloved diet.
One of the UK's most
life-changing charities, Dogs for the Disabled trains assistance
dogs to help children and adults with disabilites lead fuller, more
independent lives. For some, this means physical help around
the house and when out and about, while for others, such as
children with autism, it means providing an ever-reliable canine
friend to help make sense of a confusing world. Each dog is trained
individually to meet its owner's needs, so that it becomes a true
partner in life.
