Pork This Way

Hidden talents

Magic fluffs - she can go for walks and get absolutely filthy with mud, come home to nap/dry off and the dirt just falls off her coat. She never needs a bath but always looks clean!

Halloumi is competing in the Samoyed Breed Judging (Postgraduate) on Saturday.

A note from Halloumi and her pawrent

This will be our first time competing at Crufts, travelling outside of Ireland and getting on the ferry. We are very excited but also nervous! We will be sharing the entire journey on our Instagram.

Hidden talents

Delila knows over 50 tricks and is a highly trained assistance dog that can help with daily chores, including taking clothes out of the washing machine. She is also trained to detect a change in her Francesca's (her pawrent) heart rate, which she is able to do through scent.


Delilia won the Family Cross-breed of the Year title at Scruffts 2023 and is ready to compete in a series of events all over again this year.


She was also one of our latest Butternut Box Dogs Deserve Fame competition winners, which is why you might recognise her adorable face from our billboards.

Events she's competing in

Delila has a busy weekend ahead and we can't wait to see her in action. Be sure to try and spot her at the following events:


Friday

Young Kennel Club Basic Obedience


Saturday

Good Citizen Dog Training Scheme

Young Kennel Club Basic Obedience final


Sunday

Good Citizen Dog Training Scheme final

A note from Delila and her pawrent

Francesca would like everyone to know just how special a pup Delila is. Having worked very closely with Delila during our Dogs Deserve Fame winners photoshoot, the team at Butternut Box can confirm that she is indeed one special girl 💛
