Disc Dog / Frisbee
Goodwoof is the only place to see incredible, world-class Disc Dog action. World and European champion Adrian Stoica and his team of award-winning dogs will make a much-anticipated UK debut at Goodwoof, showcasing spectacular skills in distance and freestyle catching – combining choreographed moves with dynamic multi-disc displays that depend on the unique harmony between handler and dogs.

Heelwork to Music
Dancing duets marry obedience with stunning showmanship in Heelwork to Music – one of the fastest-growing canine activities and undoubtedly one of the most entertaining. One of only a handful of those in the UK to be recognised as a Heelwork to Music Kennel Club Accredited Trainer at Advanced Level, Gina Pink will bring her wealth of expertise to the Goodwoof Area showcasing heelwork routines beautifully choreographed to music.
Have a Go at Heelwork: An ideal way to provide a playful challenge for your canine companion, Heelwork to Music is a chance to explore what your dog can do as you find a sense of rhythm together.

Flyball
High energy meets supreme speed as Goodwoof welcomes the world’s fastest Flyball teams to the Action Sports Area across the weekend. Blink and you might miss this breath-taking head-to-head competition as canine athletes race over a set of hurdles, release a ball from a trigger box and return to tag a teammate in this rapid relay.
Have a Go at Flyball: This sport welcomes all shapes and sizes, and is suitable for almost all breeds, providing a wonderfully inclusive and enjoyable community where like-minded dog-lovers can get involved.
Chien Charmant
A competition celebrating both distinctive style and the bond between dog and owner, Goodwoof’s Chien Charmant will honour the most charismatic and charming dog/human partnerships.
Characterised by cool with an easy affinity and effortless allure, Chien Charmant entries will be carefully shortlisted, with an eye for personality, elegance and the shared flair that makes each Dog and human pair much more than the simple sum of its parts.

CaniSports
Goodwoof will welcome the world’s best dog and human teams to compete head-to-head in CaniCross, CaniBike and CaniScoot – dog-powered sports where the dog is harnessed to its human via a bungee line, leading the pair in a running, biking or scooting race. We’ve designed special CaniSports courses to make the most of the varied terrain of the estate – the perfect backdrop for high-energy action.
Have a Go at CaniSports: Tremendously good fun and a great way to get fit by enjoying off-road adventures running, biking or scooting with your dog, you’ll get to know the specialist equipment and how to use directional cues before trying a short interval of CaniSport with your dog.

To this day, dogs can stay at the Hotel, accompany their owners in the restaurants, and even join our Members’ clubhouse, The Kennels. We thought that it was only fitting to dedicate an entire event to them, just as we do with cars and horses at our other flagship meetings.
As a team, we have a deep understanding of what really amuses our dogs. We know that they love playing together with their owners and with other dogs, getting plenty of exercise and fresh air, but each have their own personality.
Dogs mean so much to their owners so I'm looking forward to seeing some fantastic designs to house them in style.
