Dash in for Cazalys’ Top Dog

CAIRNS’ furriest fundraiser is back. Cazalys Top Dog returns Sunday, July 6 from 10am to 2pm at Cazalys Stadium and it’s set to be bigger, barkier and more tail-waggingly terrific than ever.

Proudly supporting RSPCA Cairns, this paw-some community event is the ultimate day out for pet lovers, families and their four-legged friends. Last year’s event saw over 100 doggy competitors, 400-plus attendees and raised a whopping $9000 – the top Cupcake Day fundraiser in all of Australia. Now organisers say the goal is to raise $10,000 and they are calling on the Cairns community to help make it happen.

“Expect a jam-packed day of dog competitions, including the highly anticipated 'Dachshund Dash', plus training demos, market stalls, and a stack of kids’ entertainment like jumping castles and face painting,” said Cazalys marketing manager Maree Gordon-Cooke.

“Generous local businesses have thrown their support behind the event, donating fabulous prizes and sponsoring the Top Dog categories. Raffle goodies come courtesy of Havana Coffee Cartel, Little Duck Photography, Tolga Caravan Park and more.

“And let’s not forget the tireless volunteers from Rotary Cairns Northern Beaches, RSPCA and Cazalys staff who are giving their time to make it all happen.

“Think your pooch has what it takes to be crowned Top Dog? Bring them along for a day of fun, fluff and friendly competition, all while supporting animals in need.

“Come for the cuteness, stay for the cause and help make Cazalys Top Dog 2025 the best one yet."
