Animals - and more animals

Awaiting instructions

There is just so much to see and do at the Autumn Show that I am hard pressed to share it all in the short post scheduled for this weekend, so I will focus on animals and activities in just two arenas.

"We're lonely."  Do they want a pat?  Or maybe a hug?

Teme Arena: There will be daily parades of dogs, horses and other animals from the World of Animals. This year, carriage driving classes are to be part of the programme.

What a snooty look!

Indeed the World of Animals is always a popular area of the show, with many different breeds of dogs, horses and goats on display, much loved by children.

Patient, and well-trained.

Activity Arena: The programme this year includes Dog Agility on each day, plus an exhibition from Lamb National and the Inter Gundog team event.

Animals in many guises

Of course, there will be much more animal-wise to see and do than is listed above, and it all comes under the zoned areas designates as 'Enjoy It'. We hope you do.

Next week we will be back to growing and harvesting and fruit in particular. And please be aware that the images depicted are from last year’s Autumn Show so are representative of the sort of activity you can expect.
