The Deborah Gornall Memorial Dog Show.

The Pet Dog Show is a well-established feature of Goosnargh and Longridge Agricultural Show. The show was started by Deborah Gornall who sadly passed away in 2016, and her husband Colin has carried on the dog show as a fitting tribute to her memory.

All dogs are welcome to take part – pedigree or non pedigree! There are 20 classes which are listed further down on this page, including waggiest tail and handsomest dog!

Entry to the memorial dog show is £2 per dog per class, or 3 classes for £5

All money raised by the Deborah Gornall Memorial Dog Show goes towards the Goosnargh and Longridge Agricultural Show running costs.

Dog Agility

There will be dog agility demonstrations for people to watch, followed by an opportunity to have a go! Come and take part in a dog agility taster session with your pets led by Colin who runs dog agility courses. A fun day out for all families and pet dogs.

Dog agility is great fun for both dog and handler! We don’t take this too seriously, its just a great opportunity to try something new in a fun environment!

Dog agility costs £1 per dog (per run)
