An estimated 300 pet-owners and their beloved pets turned out to the Wandin Park Equestrian Centre for the inaugural Adventure Dog – A Cross Country Challenge event on Sunday 27 May. Nicknamed ‘rough mudder’, the event encouraged participants to take on an extreme cross-country style event with their dogs. In addition, the event featured a kids’ carnival, giant slide, jumping castles and plenty more for the family. Needless to say, all participants were ‘barking mad’ with excitement. ‘Mail’ photographer Greg Carrick was on-hand to capture all the action. *See full gallery at www.mailcommunity.com.au.
