                    Register for you and your rescue dogs to take part in the parade on Saturday or Sunday.
Taking place on both days of the event, we'll be celebrating rescue dogs for our parade in 2026. Led by The Duke of Richmond, hundreds of rescue dogs will meet outside the front of Goodwood House and walk down to the Goodwoof entrance, where they will take centre stage and gather in front of The Kennels. Register today for you and your rescue dogs to take part.
A rescue dog is a one that has been adopted or rehomed after being surrendered by its previous owner, found as a stray, or saved from a potentially harmful situation.
 
In some cases, rescue dogs will have been abandoned, abused or neglected. But not all. Many dogs are rehomed through private rescues, foster networks, or even directly from previous owners as a result of bereavement or difficult circumstances.



There is Blue Badge forward parking within the car park and an accessible minibus available from the car park to the event, with a short walk from the shuttle drop off to the event entrance. Please note that the event is held in a grassy field, where the ground is undulating and uneven in places with no trackway. Visit our Accessibility page for more information on electric mobility scooter and manual wheelchair hire.
Parking at Goodwoof is all free of charge, alongside a Bark and Ride service from the car park to the event area.
Each Rescue Dog Parade admission reserves spaces for one dog and two human owners. If you would like to enter more than one dog in to the parade, please ensure you have booked the correct number of parade admissions.
