Woof Wag

20/05/2026

In my humble opinion, our Woof Wag Festival on Saturday was a success! I am so proud of my family for helping out, listening to me and supporting my wacky idea of hosting Northant's largest dog festival (and keeping it free for visitors). Hard to believe that the planning started way back in July last year and it ended up being more than a full-time job, haha.

If you want to see some of the pictures, head over to the official festival page at Woof Wag Festival, I will be sharing the picture over this and the following week! See you at the next Woof Wag Festival on 22nd May 2027.

A few pictures from EnFold - Northamptonshire Autism Support event yesterday where Woof Wag popped along to help out in the morning. We had a lovely morning chatting to everyone before we headed back to finalise things for our Woof Wag Festival.

Even if we are putting final touches to our Woof Wag Festival, we still have time to be part of another community event this weekend. We will be helping EnFold - Northamptonshire Autism Support with their Enfest event. We will be setting up and hopefully welcoming lots of visitors in the morning. It is all happening this Saturday (9th May) in the grounds of Christ the King Church in Kettering, open from 10.30am to 2.30pm. Come and join this fun day.

As you might remember, we are the organisers of this event, and we are officially less than TWO weeks away from the Woof Wag Festival. It’s shaping up to be Northamptonshire’s LARGEST dog festival of the year.

If you love dogs, have dogs, or just enjoy a brilliant day out surrounded by wagging tails and happy faces…this is the dog event you don’t want to miss.

Gather the family and your furry companions for a day packed with excitement across our specialised zones:

🐾 Have-a-Go: Is your dog a hidden star? Let them try their paw at agility, flyball, scent work, and more.

🐾 The Dog Show: Enter for a chance to win fantastic prizes! We are proud to announce that all funds raised from the show will be donated to Pets As Therapy.

🐾 Kids Zone: Keep the little ones busy with book readings, arts and crafts, educational talks, and even trick training specifically for children.

🐾 Wellbeing Area: Pick up expert advice and learn something new during engaging sessions hosted by pet professionals.

🐾 Puparazzi Pods: Strike a pose! Capture the perfect memory of your dog in our themed photo pods.

🐾 Activity Tent: Become a "Dog Detective." Collect your trail map here and start your search across the festival grounds.

🐾 Zensory Zone: A unique space designed to stimulate and delight your dog’s senses.

🐾 Canine Corner: The ultimate social hub to meet like-minded owners and let the dogs make new friends.

🐾 Gratitude Tree: Take a moment to write a loving sentiment for your pet and hang it amongst the leaves.

🐾 Chill Out Space: If the excitement gets a bit much, head over here for a quiet minute to recharge.

Beyond the activities, you can spend time browsing our wonderful market stalls, grabbing a bite to eat, or enjoying a picnic in the beautiful, scenic setting of Wicksteed Park.

Tag a dog loving friend, share with your local dog groups, and make plans to join us at the Woof Wag Festival, we can’t wait to see you.

OK, so you will only know what this means if you were at T's Coffee Pitsford Dog Fest event on Sunday! At our Woof Wag stand, we had this big cylinder full of balls, and to win a prize you had to guess the number of balls.

One person came extremely close, which means our winner is Marian who we will contact directly. Congratulations to Marian, and thanks to everyone else who took part and who gave their best guesses.
