DOG owners unite! Clarks Village is on the hunt for its next CEO – canine executive officer – and your pooch could take a seat at the top table.
The free, two-day Pawsome Pooch event will see a doggy takeover at the dog-friendly shopping outlet in Street, with have-a-go agility and trick sessions, expert displays, pooch pampering, caricature pet paw-traits and Guide Dog demonstrations.
At the heart of the event will be a canine-casting photography competition to find Clarks Village’s next CEO; Canine Executive Officer.
Professional pet photographers will be scouting the event hosting free dog photo shoots with a shortlist of entries going before a public vote to find the region’s top dog.
The winner will be bestowed with the CEO title, handed over by Bailey the whippet – the winner of the very first Pawsome Pooch event held in 2022 – and become Clarks Village’s paw-fect poster star.
As well as being the outlet’s official canine consultant, they and their owner will also receive VIP invites to Clarks Village events as well as a prize package.
Dog owners are urged to book ahead for the event, between 11am and 4pm on Saturday and Sunday, September 7 and 8.
2022 winner Bailey will be handing over the lead
Chris Davis, centre director of Clarks Village, said: “Pawsome Pooch is an incredible weekend of dog-filled fun activities with a fantastic atmosphere.
“The event celebrates Clarks Village being a dog-friendly outlet with a whole host of free activities and we cannot wait to bring it back this September for all our guests and their beloved furry companions.”
Harriet French, owner of 2022 winner Bailey, said: “Bailey was so happy her portrait won Pawsome Pooch 2022, especially after she concentrated so hard on sitting still.
