While Dogs + Design by Fetch & Follow is not part of the official London Design Festival programme, this concept dog shop will sit in the heart of the Shoreditch Design Triangle and promises pet-themed features, which play into the celebration and promotion of London. as the design capital of the world. Features of the Dogs + Design by Fetch & Follow pop up include:
Dog Art Postcard Wall: celebrating all things dogs and in association with contemporary dog-centric magazine Four &
Sons, the wall will exhibit the creative work of 50 different artists to help raise money and awareness for the WECare Sri
Lanka charity that helps care for Sri Lankan street dogs. From photography from the likes of interior-loving Nicole England
of @Resident.dog and personality-capturing @thegregmurray to illustrators Walter Glassof of @walter_dogs and
@susumukamijo, there will be something to appeal to all kinds of dog and design lovers. A complete book of all postcards
will be available to purchase with profits of each sale being donated to the charity. Visitors will also be encouraged to take
postcards of their choice in exchange for a token donation.
‘Kong’ Concept Lights: Fetch & Follow has teamed up with furniture designer Dean Edmonds and dog toy company Kong to fashion the famous ‘tough’ dog toy into a playful piece of lighting for the home. Available to purchase in%store from £95, the design uses a XXL Kong in a choice of black, red or blue for the base, with a simple bulb top for a minimal look for a dog lover’s home. Continuing the Kong theme throughout the store is an installation utilising toys of all sizes and colours, as well as wall hooks made from Puppy Kongs.
Curated pet accessories and apparel: Fetch & Follow’s signature, hard-wearing, contemporary dog collars and leads will also be on sale, alongside a considered edit to the brand’s functional yet stylish dog coats and sweatshirts, which brings joy to wrapping up your dog. A charismatic topiary floral dog will stand outside the shop to welcome visitors.

Event Details
Battersea’s Muddy Dog Challenge is back, bigger and better than ever before! In its fourth year, the obstacle
course is the UK’s first 2.5km and 5km that you can tackle alongside your dog. On 30th September it will be the final event of the 2018 season, the Muddy Dog Challenge Tunbridge Wells.
No matter your fitness level, everyone is welcome to take part with their four-legged companion, or you can take it
on solo – it’s all about having fun.
Participants can expect to hurriedly hop over ‘Dog Tyred’, and swiftly splash through ‘Dog Baths’ before crossing the
finish line, all in aid of the dogs and cats at Battersea. Animal lovers taking part are asked to raise a minimum
sponsorship of £100 to help Battersea care for the thousands of animals who arrive at the animal shelter
every year.
Getting Ready for The Muddy Dog Challenge Tunbridge Wells
You don’t have to be a gym fanatic to take part in the Muddy Dog Challenge. It’s all about having fun and – with 2.5km and 5km options – you can take part, regardless of your fitness level. If you do decide to push yourself to do your first 5km, Battersea’s Emma Reynolds is here to help. Emma is a Battersea employee, a proud owner of Geoff the Labrador,
and an ultra-marathon runner. She’s combined all her expertise to put together a training plan to help you and your dog get ready for the fun day.
EMMA’S TOP FIVE TRAINING TIPS FOR THE MUDDY DOG CHALLENGE TUNBRIDGE WELLS
1. Make sure you’re training and running in a good pair of trainers. Investing in a good pair of shoes will make all the difference and they go a long way to preventing strains and muscle injuries. Don’t worry, you can always put
them in the washing machine after the course!
2. Make sure you’ve done a few runs with your dog before the big day, to get
used to how they feel on the lead – particularly if you’re running with a larger dog. We advise you to fit your dog with a harness.
3. Keep hydrated – bring some water for you and your dog, and make sure you both drink plenty during training runs.
4. On the day, neither you nor your dog have to do every obstacle. If either of you feel uncomfortable with any of them, you can just go around them.Remember, it’s the taking part that counts.
5. Most importantly – have fun! That’s what Battersea’s Muddy Dog Challenge Tunbridge Wells is all about.

Join like-minded animal lovers on 7 October for a scenic 5km walk in Battersea Park. We’ll be walking to celebrate the very special dogs and cats who may no longer be with us, but who brought so much joy to our lives.
We’ll reflect and share stories of your beloved pets as we enjoy a scenic 5km walk. You’ll also have the chance to meet some of Battersea’s adorable dogs and the very special people who care for them.
You are welcome to walk with a dog, with your friends (max. five people per group) or as an individual – just confirm when you register.
To celebrate the memory of your pet, create a dedicated online tribute page on JustGiving, with a suggested fundraising total of £100.

No idea what the weather will be like but hope to see some spiffing sartorial outfits on your hounds to keep the chill at bay.
Details of the exact route and charity of the month to be shared soon.

London’s Streatham Common Paddling Pool will be open to dogs on 7th October for the annual Doggy Splash Day at Streatham Common from 11:00-16:00.
This is a chance for dogs to have some splashy fun before the pool closes down before the end of the year and humans are allowed too (but only if they’re well behaved). As it’s a Paddling Pool this is great for dogs just getting used to water as well as those who love to have a real splash around.
The Doggy Splash Day at Streatham Common is organised by the Friends of Streatham Common and to attend they only ask for a donation to the 2019 Paddling Pool fund to attend (there’s no need to buy tickets).
Here’s a post about a previous Doggy Splash Day at Streatham Common from the event organisers to see what it’s all about.

Dog-Friendly Cinema At Picturehouse Central October 2018: Dog-friendly Cinema at Picturehouse Central is back on 7th October with the film The Wife.
Joan Castleman has spent forty years sacrificing her own talent, dreams and ambitions to support her charismatic husband Joe and his stellar literary career. Ignoring infidelities and excuses made in the cause of his art, she has put up with his behaviour with undiminished grace and humour. The foundations of their marriage have, however, been built upon a set of uneven compromises and Joan has reached a turning point.
On the eve of Joe’s Nobel Prize for Literature, the crown jewel rewarding a spectacular body of work, Joan will confront the biggest sacrifice of her life and some long-buried secrets. Based on the bestselling book by Meg Wolitzer, The Wife is a poignant, funny and emotional journey, a celebration of womanhood, self-discovery and liberation, with a stunning cast.
Tickets are £16.50 (Adults) and dogs go free! Read our review of Dog-Friendly Cinema At Picturehouse Central here.
This film is 15 rated.

Dogs are demanding a Wooferendum to stop Brexit. Join us and together let’s make the biggest bark in history. The Wooferendum March is going to be a fantastic, fun day out with a serious message: Brexit is barking mad.

We’ll gather at Waterlooo Place (just south of Piccadilly Circus) and walk along Pall Mall, past Trafalgar Square, into Whitehall past Downing Street to Parliament Square, where there will be speeches (and barks).

The Evening for Mayhew International includes:
- Guest hosts: actress, Rula Lenska and actor and animal activist, Peter Egan
- Reception Drinks and nibbles on arrival
- Musical Entertainment
- Q & A session with our Afghanistan Country Director – Dr Abdul Jalil Mohammadzai DVM
All funds raised on the evening will go towards helping Mayhew International with their much-needed work and the funding of our Trap, Neuter, Release Programme in Kabul that we are planning to roll out following the success of our Rabies Vaccination Programme in the city.
Having registered as an NGO in Afghanistan, the team at Mayhew Afghanistan in Kabul vaccinated more than 15 000 dogs, ca 75% of the population in Kabul in 13 months and we hope for the same success with our TNR programme which has a target of 6400 dogs in the first year.
There are many causes that lead to these circumstances including unregulated breeding of unneutered animals, limited knowledge and acceptance of neutering, limited veterinary provisions and preventative animal care, and poor waste management.
Mayhew is working to address these issues, working with government authorities, veterinary training establishments and local animal welfare groups to develop programmes that will provide a sustainable solution to the problem.

Battersea’s Muddy Dog Challenge is back, bigger and better than ever before! In its fourth year, the obstacle
course is the UK’s first 2.5km and 5km that you can tackle alongside your dog. On 30th September it will be the final event of the 2018 season, the Muddy Dog Challenge Tunbridge Wells.
No matter your fitness level, everyone is welcome to take part with their four-legged companion, or you can take it
on solo – it’s all about having fun.
Participants can expect to hurriedly hop over ‘Dog Tyred’, and swiftly splash through ‘Dog Baths’ before crossing the
finish line, all in aid of the dogs and cats at Battersea. Animal lovers taking part are asked to raise a minimum
sponsorship of £100 to help Battersea care for the thousands of animals who arrive at the animal shelter
every year.
Getting Ready for The Muddy Dog Challenge Tunbridge Wells
You don’t have to be a gym fanatic to take part in the Muddy Dog Challenge. It’s all about having fun and – with 2.5km and 5km options – you can take part, regardless of your fitness level. If you do decide to push yourself to do your first 5km, Battersea’s Emma Reynolds is here to help. Emma is a Battersea employee, a proud owner of Geoff the Labrador,
and an ultra-marathon runner. She’s combined all her expertise to put together a training plan to help you and your dog get ready for the fun day.
EMMA’S TOP FIVE TRAINING TIPS FOR THE MUDDY DOG CHALLENGE TUNBRIDGE WELLS
1. Make sure you’re training and running in a good pair of trainers. Investing in a good pair of shoes will make all the difference and they go a long way to preventing strains and muscle injuries. Don’t worry, you can always put
them in the washing machine after the course!
2. Make sure you’ve done a few runs with your dog before the big day, to get
used to how they feel on the lead – particularly if you’re running with a larger dog. We advise you to fit your dog with a harness.
3. Keep hydrated – bring some water for you and your dog, and make sure you both drink plenty during training runs.
4. On the day, neither you nor your dog have to do every obstacle. If either of you feel uncomfortable with any of them, you can just go around them.Remember, it’s the taking part that counts.
5. Most importantly – have fun! That’s what Battersea’s Muddy Dog Challenge Tunbridge Wells is all about.

All dogs in the Sighthound family are welcome on the Sighthound Sundays Walk plus any little companion pals and is open to humans who are also looking to test drive a sighthound too.
The group will be meeting at the usual spot, opposite the Dogs of Alcibiades statue and by the farmers market so you can grab a coffee.
We’ll walk, talk, sniff and scamper followed by some optional zoomies and most likely head to the pub!
No idea what the weather will be like but hope to see some spiffing sartorial outfits on your hounds to keep the chill at bay.

London’s Streatham Common Paddling Pool will be open to dogs on 7th October for the annual Doggy Splash Day at Streatham Common from 11:00-16:00.
This is a chance for dogs to have some splashy fun before the pool closes down before the end of the year and humans are allowed too (but only if they’re well behaved). As it’s a Paddling Pool this is great for dogs just getting used to water as well as those who love to have a real splash around.
The Doggy Splash Day at Streatham Common is organised by the Friends of Streatham Common and to attend they only ask for a donation to the 2019 Paddling Pool fund to attend (there’s no need to buy tickets).
Here’s a post about a previous Doggy Splash Day at Streatham Common from the event organisers to see what it’s all about.

Dog-Friendly Cinema At Picturehouse Central October 2018: Dog-friendly Cinema at Picturehouse Central is back on 7th October with the film The Wife.
Joan Castleman has spent forty years sacrificing her own talent, dreams and ambitions to support her charismatic husband Joe and his stellar literary career. Ignoring infidelities and excuses made in the cause of his art, she has put up with his behaviour with undiminished grace and humour. The foundations of their marriage have, however, been built upon a set of uneven compromises and Joan has reached a turning point.
On the eve of Joe’s Nobel Prize for Literature, the crown jewel rewarding a spectacular body of work, Joan will confront the biggest sacrifice of her life and some long-buried secrets. Based on the bestselling book by Meg Wolitzer, The Wife is a poignant, funny and emotional journey, a celebration of womanhood, self-discovery and liberation, with a stunning cast.
Tickets are £16.50 (Adults) and dogs go free! Read our review of Dog-Friendly Cinema At Picturehouse Central here.
This film is 15 rated.

Join Mayhew at Burgh House Hampstead for an Evening for Mayhew International on October 14th 2018.
Time: 6:30pm-8:30pm
Location: Burgh House, Hampstead, NW3 1LT
Tickets: £15 per person
The Evening for Mayhew International includes:
- Guest hosts: actress, Rula Lenska and actor and animal activist, Peter Egan
- Reception Drinks and nibbles on arrival
- Musical Entertainment
- Q & A session with our Afghanistan Country Director – Dr Abdul Jalil Mohammadzai DVM
All funds raised on the evening will go towards helping Mayhew International with their much-needed work and the funding of our Trap, Neuter, Release Programme in Kabul that we are planning to roll out following the success of our Rabies Vaccination Programme in the city.
Having registered as an NGO in Afghanistan, the team at Mayhew Afghanistan in Kabul vaccinated more than 15 000 dogs, ca 75% of the population in Kabul in 13 months and we hope for the same success with our TNR programme which has a target of 6400 dogs in the first year.
There are many causes that lead to these circumstances including unregulated breeding of unneutered animals, limited knowledge and acceptance of neutering, limited veterinary provisions and preventative animal care, and poor waste management.
Mayhew is working to address these issues, working with government authorities, veterinary training establishments and local animal welfare groups to develop programmes that will provide a sustainable solution to the problem.
