Members news: RSPCA is back with Shibden Dog Day 2024

Sep 25, 2024

THE RSPCA Halifax, Huddersfield, Bradford & District branch are excited to be back at Halifax’s Shibden Park for their annual Shibden Dog Day! The event will take place on Saturday 28th September from 12pm-4pm, with a 12 class fun dog show and a variety of stalls and games for all the family to enjoy!

Lauren Moore Fundraising Manager said “We love hosting our popular Shibden Dog Day as the park has so much history and beauty it makes the day even more special! As always, we’ve got classes suitable for all dogs with something for the puppies to the golden oldies. So if you’re looking to beat the back to school blues and find something fun to do in Halifax this September, be sure to join us for Shibden Dog Day!”

The event has been sponsored by The Shibden Mill Inn and is free to attend with dog show classes costing just £2.00 to enter. The local RSPCA branch, which is independently funded from the National RSPCA, is hoping to raise funds and awareness of their rehabilitation and rehoming work.

It costs over £2000 to operate their Animal Centre for just one day and events like Shibden Dog Day, along with support from the local community, are vital for the rehoming centre to continue its animal welfare work across Calderdale, Huddersfield and Bradford.

The RSPCA Halifax, Huddersfield, Bradford and District Branch are a self-funding branch of the National RSPCA, responsible for raising money locally to support our animal welfare work.  This year the branch has rehomed over 250  animals. Our main aim is to rehabilitate unwanted, abandoned and abused animals and find them loving, permanent homes. We rely on public donations and the generosity of our local community to keep the doors of our animal centre open.
