Celebrate National Dog Day at Arlington Court with our special Canine Ninja Warrior event. Set on the lawn in front of the main house, this fun and interactive challenge invites you and your dog to work as a team across six unique obstacles.

Earn a ribbon for each completed challenge, and if you collect all six, you will receive a rosette to mark your achievement. One of the highlights is the Yellow Brick Road, where you and your dog must navigate a narrow path together without pulling on the lead - lose focus, and you’ll return to the start.

Expert trainers from Dream Training Dogs will be present throughout the day to offer guidance, tips, and encouragement, ensuring a rewarding and enjoyable experience for dogs and owners alike.
