The 5th Lydiard Bark Charity Dog Show will be taking place this Sunday in Swindon. The Lydiard Bark is an annual fun dog show organised by Eastcott Vets Swindon. It is a super friendly event that is admirably run by some amazing volunteers in their free time.

The day aims for a real country feel, providing a fun day out for dog owners and their dogs. It is a great day for the whole family and is well supported by donations and sponsorship from local and national businesses.
