Ruffs Dog Show 2019: 10 photos as Preston's pooches show off their best tricks at Ashton Park

Tails were wagging at a party for hounds at Ashton Park as an annual Ruffs Dog Show got underway.

Between 100 and 150 four-legged-pets showed off their best tricks including packing suitcases, running up an owner’s leg and sitting on their shoulder and taking their owner’s socks off. The hounds even got a chance to play an adaption of a classic children’s party game, musical sit.
