Farmers' Market Dog Show

Sponsored by Farmers' Market, the dog show will be judged by our local celebrities Michael Faulkner, Director of the Tappahannock Regional Free Clinic and a Westminster Kennel Club judge, assisted by Emerson Hughes, owner of Holiday Barn pet resorts. There will be prizes for the best in show, the best dressed, and – if you dare! – the dog that looks most like its master or mistress. Registration starts at 9:00 a.m. and must be completed before 10:00 a.m. – you can check the contest rules and download the registration from www.tappahannockmarket.com/dogshow to speed up the registration process. Only one friendly dog (over 6 months old) per entry is allowed and dogs must be on a leash not longer than 6 feet long. Bring your current shots certificate for the dogs being shown – and be sure to bring clean up bags! The dog parade will start from the courthouse steps and parade around the market, returning to the steps where the judges will officiate. Don't miss the fun!
