Barkitecture
Once again, Goodwoof will display an incredible line up of architecturally designed kennels. Meticulously built and taking inspiration from the 2025 theme From Nature; For Nature, the designs have been submitted by architects from all across the world. We’re sure you’ll have your favourites and your dog will enjoy trying them for size. All proceeds from the Bonhams' Auction, taking place on the Sunday, will go to our official 2025 event charity partner, Wild at Heart Foundation.
Ministry of Hound
It’s your chance to throw some shapes with your four-legged friend as renowned DJs from the Ministry of Sound play all the dancefloor fillers. Join DJ Fat Tony behind the decks as brothers Curtis and AJ Pritchard take you through your steps.
Woodland Walk
Our winding, shady and easy-to-navigate trail is back by popular demand for 2025. Dotted along the way will be the chance to learn the ancient art of truffle hunting, commune with our expert pet medium, or have your dog's tarot cards read. You'll also find along the route crystal healing, Japanese forest bathing and, new for 2025, dog astrology.
If an active walk is more your dog's speed, take up the Vitality 10,000 Steps Around Goodwoof challenge by following the signposts along the way.

Dogs can stay at the Hotel, accompany their owners in the restaurants, and even join our Members’ clubhouse, The Kennels. We thought it was only fitting to dedicate an entire event to them.
