SHCGB Fineshades Rally
Sat 4th December '04
- Sun 5th Dec '04
Location Info
Fineshade Wood in Northamptonshire is a mixed broadleaf and conifer woodland managed by Forestry England. The forest contains a well-developed path network, including wide gravel tracks and surfaced multi-use trails.
Terrain is gently undulating, typical of the Rockingham Forest area. Surfaces are predominantly firm forestry aggregate.
Please remember that there are several houses within the area in which the rally is held, so please be aware that we do not have the trails to the exclusion of others. The through road leading to the car park MUST be kept clear of vehicles as it is required for access by residents and the Forest Enterprise. No dogs under the age of twelve months will be permitted to compete. No team is allowed on the trail before, during, or after the Rally, other than at their designated time. No stake-outs allowed in the Caravan Club Car Park. Please ensure the Rally site is kept clean and tidy.

SHCGB
The Siberian Husky Club of Great Britain (SHCGB) is the UK’s national breed club dedicated to the promotion and welfare of the Siberian Husky. Formed with the permission of The Kennel Club in 1977, the organisation was established to educate owners, encourage responsible breeding and promote the working heritage of the breed in the United Kingdom.
The club brings together enthusiasts, breeders and owners who share an interest in Siberian Huskies, whether for companionship, showing or working activities. It organises Open and Championship dog shows each year and supports winter working rallies where owners and their dogs can participate in harness activities and trail events.
Alongside its events, the club provides guidance on responsible ownership, breeding ethics and the health of the breed. Through education, shows and working activities, the Siberian Husky Club of Great Britain works to preserve the characteristics and traditional capabilities that define the Siberian Husky as a northern working dog.
