We have widened the qualification to include show champions at all shows in Ireland or the UK BUT owners must claim their qualification by email to Irishcountrylifestyle@btinternet.comdetailing where they won, date and organiser. Dogs that qualified for 2019 and took part are also eligible to take part. 

 

Please Note:

We have had a system in place for some years whereby anyone actually present at the fair can make an objection to the winner by making a formal objection and putting down a deposit of €50/£50. This will be returned if the objection is upheld. If the challenge fails the money will be donated to charity. This will be the ONLY system of dispute that will be considered and no debate will be entered into over the results AFTER the Fair.
