“We are so excited to be hosting our annual Fun Day in an all new venue.

“It’s a fantastic opportunity to meet local dog lovers and raise pounds for the hounds in our care as all proceeds from the day help us to care for the many stray, abandoned and unwanted dogs we currently care for at our Ballymena Rehoming Centre, said Samuel.
