Let your dogs out at Cazalys
IT’S time to spend some quality time with your pooch with the return of the annual Cazalys ‘Top Dog’ which is bigger, better and fluffier than ever tomorrow at Cazalys Stadium.
Get your leash, treats and water ready for a fun morning with your furry friend for a good cause, from 9am to 12pm at Cazalys oval with market stalls, a sausage sizzle, and lots of fun dog competitions taking place and all proceeds going to RSPCA.
This year the pup competition will be fierce with six categories – waggiest tail, best dressed, handsomest hound/prettiest pooch, best senior, best trick, scruffiest pooch, best six legs (matching outfits for you and your pooch) and a very special addition in 2024 with the Dachshund Dash, a 40m dash for the quickest wiener dog.
Entry for each category is $10 and lots of prizes are up for grabs. At the end the best dog could win Cazalys Top Dog.
“We’re very excited for this year’s Top Dog. It’s going to be a much bigger event than last year,” said Cazalys marketing and promotions coordinator Danielle Rithmiller.
“We’ve turned into a full blown Top Dog competition. We have seven categories that people can enter their pups in with over $1500 in prizes to win from our sponsors in Cairns.
“These will be friendly and fun competitions and the Top Dog will be awarded a huge hamper that Pet Stock donated and Cazalys is sponsoring it with $150 worth of vouchers.
“This is a whole fun day very family-friendly with heaps of children activities like jumping castles, face painting and balloon animals. There’ll be giant lawn games for everybody to play, heaps of local pet-based businesses coming along, everything dog-focused will be there.
“We’re hoping for about 200 people this year and it’s going to be a lot of fun and we’ll only keep growing so come along.”
