FCI’s 3^rd edition of the dog walk took place on August 6^th:
300 participants under the sun!

In the afternoon of 6 August, the FCI organised their third dog walk, in collaboration with the Tourism Office of Thuin. This year, we had the opportunity to walk through the prestigious site of the Aulne Abbey and … we enjoyed it!

Three hundred participants gathered, most of them accompanied by their four-legged friend of course, sometimes even by more than one

Just like last year, those who did not come with a dog were offered the opportunity to “borrow a doggy” from our partner, the SPA of Charleroi (Animal Protection Society): they joined us with 8 dogs the participants could take for a walk with them and/or adopt, after a period of reflection.

Our guides - Carine and Swamini - led this happy procession, divided into two groups, to the several demo’s we had organised with the help of our wonderful partners:

Ecole Technique Cynophile (training, behaviour, Agility, Obedience,…)
Terra Nova Rescue Dogs (rescue dogs at work in the river)
Secourisme canin (first aid for dogs)

Thank you, dear friends, who train your dogs to work for the benefit of us all:
big applause!!!

We would like to thank Eukanuba and Transgroom for their support and the small presents they provided for the dogs.
