Chiswick House Dog Show
An annual celebration of everything dog. Run by the community, it has show rings, doggy dash, celebrity judges, fancy dress, and stalls selling every imaginable canine accessory. It supports the upkeep of the paths, bushes and trees so that dogs and their owners can continue to safely enjoy their walks in the gardens.
