DOGS Victoria

– Victorian’s official canine association – 

is conducting an 

INTERNATIONAL VIRTUAL DOG SHOW

to raise funds to provide the basics for the people (and their dogs) who have been seriously affected by Australia’s worst peacetime disaster.

181 people have been killed (including some of our own dog family) and it is expected the final figure could be as many as 300  (at this stage, police have temporarily suspended updating the death toll).  There have been almost 2000 homes destroyed, displacing 7000 people

I encourage all visitors to irishsettersaustralia.com to enter this ‘virtual’ dog show –a dog show, without actually having a dog show –  as a novel way of making a donation.

For an amount of $A10 per entry,  your name and your dog/s will appear in the ‘official show catalogue’ which is to be presented to those unfortunate people who need to make use of funds raised. A copy will also be published on the website of VICdogs.

Any dog can be entered…. a living or a past love…. pedigree or of mixed marriage… a showdog or obedience dropout….

To make this a truly international dog show, we invite overseas irish setter lovers to participate.  VICdogs has a PayPal facility for ease of entering.

Please visit the website of VicDogs on the following link:  

Let’s help make this the largest dog show in the world!
