Did thay used to charge for parking at Bournemouth champ show? I know the venue has changes but getting so expensive especially have to take an NFC dog as well, you think they would make that cheaper, they really have jumped on the band wagon with that.

Spectator dogs are £5, so if you don't need a bench or your dogs are happy to share 1 then it's cheaper than NFC.

Just a quick question on this, can you take a non predigree dog to a champ show as a spectator dog?

Thanks

How do you do this if you are taking one to show and one not to show. Do you pay as you enter for the NFC one or does someone else have to take it in. Not worried about bench as never use them use crate in stead.

You have to fill out a form so I assume you tell them you have a spectator dog.

I entered one of my dogs as a spectator dog last year at East of England as it was much cheaper than putting her down as nfc.

There was a form to fill in on arrival and she was given a tag to wear,It was a quick and easy process and didn't cause us any hold up at all.


We rarely use benching I couldn't see the point in entering her nfc and paying for it,she simply sat in the crate with the dog I was exhibiting

I would definitely use this option again and there is no problem in taking in crossbreeds etc .

The dog in question has been taking part in agility the previous day but her pass was only valid for that day but Harry the dog I was exhibiting was able to enter the showground via the agility gate on the day beforehand as he is fully kc registered so able to go along to agility events as nfc without me having to pay for him.
