About Goodwoof

A spectacular new dog event dedicated to our canine companions, Goodwoof on the Goodwood Estate will feature a fantastic line-up of activities to entertain dogs and their humans. Goodwoof will host world-class competition from top canine athletes; wellness workshops; behavioural and veterinary experts taking on topics from anxiety management to the secrets of your dog’s body language; celebrations of pop culture canine icons and heroes from history alongside trails, treats and plenty of play.

Chien Charmant concept

The uniquely Goodwood spin on a traditional dog show staple, Chien Charmant is a concours d’elegance for the dog world and as opposed to a formal pedigree procession, this is a cool and diverse celebration of style, swagger and that special charisma that certain dogs and their owners exude. It’s not about breed, but a distinct and unique celebration complete with stories of fascinating characters.
