All Dogs Matter Pup Idol 2016

On the 16th of July All Dogs Matter Charity held their Pup Idol Event at the Garden Gate Pub in Hampstead Heath. They had a great turnout and a variety of classes for your dogs to take part in including Cutest Pup, Best Rescue, Golden Oldie, Mr Hampstead, and Miss Hampstead. Some of the judges on the day were Christiana from Hampstead Housesitters, Lisa and her rescue Cavalier Lucy, Ann from Beautiful Joe's Ethical Treats and Marc Abraham the vet. They also did an auction to help raise funds for their dogs who are looking for homes.

One of the things I enjoy the most about photographing All Dogs Matter's Events is the opportunity to meet and photograph rescue dogs who have found homes and got their second chance of having a happy life. There is something extra special about meeting dogs who have not had the best start in life and turned out to have such great characters.

The event was in aid of All Dogs Matter, they raised £1,665.98 which is a brilliant amount and will go towards helping more of their dogs.
