BCC to Host 8th Annual Not Your Average Dog Show12:51PM / Monday, January 26, 2009
Dogs of any breed or mix, with or without credentials, will have a chance to be the center of attention on Sunday, Feb. 8, during the Berkshire Community College Foundation’s eighth annual “Not Your Average Dog Show.”
Organizers specifically emphasize that the show is “not just for purebreds.” The fun family-oriented event is scheduled from 12:30 to 4 in the Paterson Field House on Berkshire Community College’s main campus on West St. in Pittsfield. Dogs must register in order to participate. Pre-registration is suggested as categories fill up fast. Admission to view the event is by donation and all proceeds benefit the college’s Annual Fund.
Categories include: Best Trick, Best Smile, Fastest Tail Wagger, Best Dressed, Looks Like Owner, Best Hair, Best Fetcher, Earresistible Ears, Best Kisser, Most Obedient, and Mystery Mutt will challenge the judges as they must guess the breeds of the dog. Category sponsors include Dr. Ed Helitzer, Legacy Banks, The Clip Shop, Greylock Insurance Agency, Animal ER of the Berkshires, Greylock Federal Credit Union, and the Berkshire Humane Society.
“Most Photogenic” is open to both dogs and cats. Those interested in this category must submit a favorite photo of their pet. The picture must be received by Feb 4. Eligible pictures will be posted during the show and the picture that receives the most votes by the audience wins.
Vendors will have pet related items for sale and non-profit agencies will provide information pertaining to pet services. Refreshments will be offered for sale by the BCC LPN program. Local businesses have donated items for a raffle. Dan Dillon, Relationship Development Officer at Greylock Federal Credit Union will emcee, and Gene Dellea, President of the BCC Foundation, will be the “Ring Master.”
The cost to pre-register a dog is $12 if received by Feb. 4, $15 after that date and the day of the show. Each registered dog may be entered in two categories. Registration fees are non-refundable. Judging will be done by representatives of the sponsoring businesses and community volunteers.
Dogs must be on a leash at all times. All dogs must have up-to-date rabies shot. Females in season should not participate. For more information, or to request a registration form, call Ann at 413-236-2185, visit the BCC web site www.berkshirecc.edu or e-mail aphillips@berkshirecc.edu. |
