The Pooch Mobile dog wash will be attending, so your dogs can have a bit of pampering!
There will also be an inflatable assault course, suitable for adults and children, this will test your stamina!
If the weather is wet, and we certainly hope it won't be there will be unbrellas for hire, if it is hot then they become sunshades to hire! Let us hope it is the 2nd one thay are used for.
If you came last year you will have seen Ted the man who made personalised raised wooden bowl stands. he is also attending again.

Fun day preparations
Everything is coming together nicely for the fun day, keep your fingers crossed that the weather is dry this week to enable the farmer to get the field cut, otherwise you will all have to bring strimmers!
This year the catering is going to be different with more variety, including baked potatoes with a choice of fillings, filled baguettes as well as the usual bacon butties etc. Hopefully this better selection will go down well.
Lou Miller photography is attending so you will be able to have professional pictures taken of your dogs, children or even yourself!
Madtattoos of Newark are bringing their mobile tattoo studio and there will be a raffle with the prize of a tattoo for the winner, as well as usual tattoos they also do temporary tattoos so you don't have to go for anything permanent.
There will be the usual auction and raffle, if you have anything for them please bring them along on the day.
We also have a different PA system so Lynsey shouldn't lose her voice this year!
If anyone would like to volunteer to look after a stall or help in some other capacity please do contact me = ann@bull-terriers.co.uk or 07780541143, the more helpers we have the better it will be!

Can you do some fundraising?
If anyone could help with raising funds it would be brilliant. We are taking in more dogs than ever now and despite having more foster homes than ever before there are still some that have to go into kennels. At the moment we have 7 bullies in kennels at £5 each per day, this number is the minimum as soon as one is rehomed there is at least 1 more to replace it. These are usually dogs that don't get on with others and therefore can't go into foster homes where they would have to mix with resident dogs, or it could be that they have some issues that can be easier dealt with by the expertise of the kennel staff. When dogs go in the kennels from pounds they have to be vaccinated and many times have other veterinary needs. All dogs are neutered before they are rehomed and if possible bitches are spayed. The donations we receive as adoption fees nowhere near cover the amount that the dogs have cost us.
If you could help by doing some fundraising that would be so very much appreciated. Every pound helps. There are so many things that can be done to raise cash and if there were more hours in the day I wouldn't have to ask.
If you need anyhelp I would be willing to have a chat with you about it.

BIN WALKS!
A while back, a number of bullie owners from the Bullie Bar Forum decided to get together and meet up for walks up and down the country. During this time it was suggested that perhaps a small donation could be collected ( entirely voluntary I might add!) after the walk and that the proceeds would go to Bullies In Need. There is always a needy dog that comes into the care of Bullies In Need, and with the price of vetinary bills any extra monies are always warmly welcomed!
So, that is how the BIN Walks came about. Usually, every other month or so, a walk is held and as expected, always attracts a good turn out! Walks have been held in Plymouth, Tentsmuir, Leeds, Cheshire, Lancashire and East Midlands, so you are never too far away from one!

We have so far raised in excess of £500.00 with the generous donations that people have made on our walks, it is also a chance to meet up with fellow bull terrier owners and have a chat....only to find that it's not just your bullie that is a complete nut case!!
There are many bull terriers that come into welfare for one reason or another throughout the year, and it is your kindness in making donations that can give a bull terrier a second chance. Some are not so lucky, but every penny counts, it does not matter whether its one pound or ten...
Look forward to seeing you soon!
Saying their goodbyes until next time...
Now its time to go home....
Dont forget to keep checking the BIN website for the latest walks! The next walk may be closer than you think!
