Deaf Dog Photo Challenge (Townsville 2018) - Has Ended
DO Details
Do you live in the Townsville region and have a Deaf Dog?
WE WANT TO MEET YOU!
Please join us at 4pm Sunday 1st July at The Palmetum to take part in our 2018 DEAF DOG PHOTO CHALLENGE!
The Townsville team will be making an attempt to win back the title in our Deafie Photo Challenge to get as many deaf dogs in one photo as we can.
The record is currently held by the Canberra HNE team with a total of FOURTEEN deafies in one pic - Double the townsville teams original tally!
We need as many local deaf dogs and owners to help us reclaim our title so please come on down and see us!
We missed reclaiming the title last year by just ONE deafie!
Get your deafies prepped and pretty and meet us at 4pm at the gates of the Palmetum gardens where we can get your details and head on to have the group photo taken.
Last year we held it in conjunction with the Pet Expo but this year we are opting for a quieter, less crowded, low key gathering so that the dogs can be much more relaxed and the handlers less stressed with much more spacious location with LOTS of space to spread out, very low foot traffic area, and even nervous dogs can attend.
Each deafie who joins us for the challenge will receive a certificate of participation, a small gift plus a copy of the group photo as a Thankyou!
WILL YOU BE THERE?
Let us know by registering your details Below.

Don't forget to share with anyone you know with a deaf dog in townsville region!
* Nervous and socially awkward deafies and humans alike are most welcome to participate. The garden location gives us plenty of space to buffer your dog from others if required.
** It’s a great idea to bring some high value treats for your dog on the day, and be rewarding them heavily during the event to ensure they are on their best behaviour and have great handler focus.
*** ALL dogs must be ON LEAD and under effective control at all times. You are responsible for your dog and it’s actions including any and all damage/injury to themselves, others or property.
HNE will in no way be held liable for any incidents on the day.
FAQS.
Does my dog need to be Deaf to attend?
Yes, if you are participating in the Deaf Dog Photo Challenge your dog will only be counted if they are Deaf.
Do I have to have proof my dog is Deaf?
No, we believe you. We’ve been around enough deafies to be able to tell if your fibbing.
