New website and new features for The Pet Show

The Pet Show 2014 has kicked off the new year with a brand new website and a host of new features that expand on last year’s format, including a much greater range of interactive events and exhibits.

Most significant is the introduction of a Dog Breed Village, which already has the support of over thirty breed associations and clubs, to offer an extensive advice resource for dog owners and visitors interested in owning a dog.

“Due to popular demand from visitors, 2014 will see the addition of a dog breed village. This will compliment the Cat Breed Village, which was very well received in 2013. Visitors interested in learning more about specific dog breeds will be able to get lots of tips and advice with each breed represented by its club or rescue society,” explained Carly Jackson, Director of The Pet Show.

A new show section called Animal Discovery is also being added to offer advice and inspiration to visitors about ways in which they can use their gardens to attract and support wildlife, including the creation of a bee friendly garden by the British Bee Keeping Association, a hedgehog habitat created by the Warwickshire Wildlife Trust and a mini beast corner featuring an array of insect life.

Explaining the new addition to the format, Carly Jackson added: “This new section expands our reach and complements our core focus on pets. Our visitors are animal lovers and we wanted to make a connection with wildlife in a way that most people can relate to in their everyday lives.

“At this year’s show there will be more to see, more to do, better facilities and significantly better opportunities for exhibitors and sponsors to target audiences relevant to their products and services.”

The Pet Show 2014’s website can be found at: www.thepetshow.co.uk. The show will be held at Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire on August 2-3. For enquiries about exhibition space and sponsorship opportunities contact Carly Jackson at: carly@thepetshow.co.uk
