😢❌ BARKLIFE – POSTPONED ❌🥵

Due to the continued hot weather and the high temperatures forecast for this Saturday, we have made the difficult decision to postpone Barklife Dog Show and Walk.

We had hoped conditions would be cooler, but the latest forecast suggests the summer heatwave is set to continue, with temperatures rising again.

As the welfare of our canine visitors is our top priority, we feel postponing the event is the right decision. We know this will be disappointing news, and we're very disappointed too, as we were looking forward to welcoming everyone to the park. However, we would never want to put any dogs at risk in the heat.

We're sorry for any disappointment or inconvenience this may cause.

🐶❤️ The good news is that Barklife WILL return, and we can't wait to see you all then!

Calling all dog lovers!

Save the date for Saturday 8 August, 10am–2pm, for a paw-some day of furry fun at Barklife!

Start the day with a group dog walk led by Cats Protection Ashford & South Kent – meet outside Harper’s Café at 10am and enjoy a stroll around the park.

From 11am, our FREE Dog Show kicks off with categories for every pup:
