The world record attempt is just one of the attractions entertaining visitors and their pooches on the day. There will be prizes for the best dogs in costume, free veterinary and nutritional advice, agility and obedience classes, live entertainment and free goodie bags for you and your pet.
Speaking at the announcement, John Fox, GAIN Pet Food Sales Manager said “we are delighted to be involved with Barretstown in what we believe will be one of the biggest dog events of 2013. We hope all dog lovers will join us to become part of this unique world record event and help raise funds for Barretstown which is such a worthy cause. The current record for the most dogs in costumed attire stands at 1,326 and we hope that through this event Ireland can follow in Katie Taylor’s footsteps and win another world record title.”
