A MINI-CRUFTS is due to take place in Hampshire, after plans were announced for the charity dog show.

Pooches and pups from across the county will be welcome to the event that is being staged in aid of Gosport and District Disabled Sports Association this Saturday.

The event is a joint effort by the disabled charity group and the Gilnor Dog Training Club from Elson in Gosport, who have organised the show, which will include pedigree and novelty classes.

Dog-handlers will be able to register their pets from 12.30pm, for a 2pm judging, at the Walpole Park in Gosport.
