Rules that apply to all Three Counties Shows that permit dogs

Dogs left in Vehicles

Dogs left in vehicles will not be tolerated at any time to uphold animal welfare standards. If car park staff identify a dog left unattended inside a vehicle during any Three Counties Show and it is deemed to be in distress, they will be removed from the vehicle by any means necessary to ensure the welfare of the animal. This also applies to Three Counties shows that do not permit dogs.

Dangerous Dogs Act

Dogs on the Dangerous Dogs Act 2023 list, including XL Bully, Pit Bull terrier, Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino and the Fila Brasileiro will not be permitted entry to the showground under any circumstances.

Leads

Dogs, when permitted, must be kept on a short, fixed lead of no more than 2 metres at all times. Retractable leads are not allowed. Owners with dogs not on short, fixed lead of no more than 2 metres, will be refused entry or will need to purchase a suitable lead at the gate to gain entry to the show.

Off-limits Areas

There may be some areas of the shows that dogs are not permitted. All dog free zones will be clearly signed. Visitors are required to clean up after their dogs using the dog waste bins provided.

Non-compliance

The organisers reserve the right to ask visitors to leave if their dog/s are found to be worrying animals or other visitors.

Third-Party Events

For all other third party events, please contact the organisers directly to find out about their dog policy.
