POOCHES across North Essex will have their chance at the spotlight in this annual show.

The Kozy Katz Dog Show is back for its 14th year of strutting and judging at Great Bentley Village Hall.

Dogs and pups can be shown in four classes: Puppies up to 18 months, Adults 18 months to seven-years-old, Mature for dogs older than seven, Best rescued and the Dog that most resembles its owner.

All class winners will be automatically entered into Best in Show.

To attend the events costs 25p and young children go free.

It takes place on Sunday, February 26 and the doors open for on-day registration at 2pm.
