Pet Franchise Sponsors Sporting Event

Pet sitting franchiseOscar Pet Foods were the proud sponsors of the CLA Game Fair 2010, and had a network of nutritional advisers on hand to give expert advice throughout the event.

The pet franchise also helped to keep this years’ CLA Game Fair a poop free zone by encouraging dog owners to ‘scoop that poop’. The event had around 144,000 visitors bringing perhaps as many as 5,000 dogs, so Oscar’s decided to provide free poop-scoop bags and fresh cool water for the thousands of thirsty attendees – dogs that is!

The CLA Game Fair is the world's original, largest and most prestigious countryside exhibition and was held at Ragley Hall in Alcester, Warwickshire. The event took place from Friday 23rd July - Sunday 25th July with many country sports and rural activities represented. This special annual event in the sporting calendar appealed equally to keen huntsmen, countryside lovers and visitors of all ages.
