Dog Policy

CountryTastic and Royal Three Counties Show 2025

Only assistance or participating dogs are permitted at CountryTastic and Royal Three Counties Show and in the car parks for these events.

To uphold animal welfare standards, Three Counties does not allow dogs to be left unattended in vehicles in its car parks. Vehicles containing dogs upon entry will not be welcome to park at the Showground.

Dogs left in vehicles will not be tolerated per our Dog Policy to uphold animal welfare standards. If car park staff identify a dog left unattended inside a vehicle during an event 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.
