We’re Heading Back to Crufts 2026!
After a lot of to-ing and fro-ing, a fair bit of planning, and more than a few cups of tea, we’re very excited to finally say it out loud…
We’re going to Crufts 2026!
From Thursday 5th March to Sunday 8th March, you’ll find us back at the NEC in Birmingham, soaking up the atmosphere and chatting about all things dogs with fellow dog lovers.
Where to find us
- Hall 5 | Stand 5-80
- NEC, Birmingham
If you’ve been to Crufts before, you’ll know just how special it is - the buzz, the dogs, the shopping, and the conversations with people who truly understand life with dogs. For us, Crufts is also a hugely important opportunity to raise both funds and awareness for UK Boston Terrier Rescue.
Why Crufts matters to us
UK Boston Terrier Rescue exists to help Boston Terriers who find themselves in need through no fault of their own - whether that’s due to changes in family circumstances, health issues, or simply because their owners can no longer care for them. Behind every dog is a story, and often those stories come with significant costs.
Funds raised through events like Crufts help cover:
- Veterinary treatment and ongoing medical care
- Emergency and specialist procedures
- Behavioural support and training
- Transport and foster care costs
- Essential items to keep dogs safe, comfortable, and well cared for
Equally important is raising awareness. Many people are unaware that breed-specific rescue exists, or that Boston Terriers can face complex health and welfare challenges. Being at Crufts allows us to speak directly to thousands of dog lovers, share knowledge about the breed, and encourage responsible ownership and rescue.
What we’ll have on the stand
We’ll be bringing a great selection of goodies with us, and every purchase helps support the rescue and the dogs in our care:
- Both of our jigsaws
- Medical first aid kits
- Dog poop bag holders
- Treat pouches
- Beanie hats
- Dog walking bags
- Drawstring bags
- Coasters (with designs for all breeds)
- Silicone squeak toys
- Vet bed
- A variety of socks
- Croc charms
Come and say hello
Crufts is one of our favourite chances to meet supporters, adopters, volunteers, and fellow dog people face to face. Whether you’ve supported UK Boston Terrier Rescue for years or are hearing about us for the first time, please do stop by the stand.
By visiting us, having a chat, or picking up some merch, you’re helping us continue our work and giving Boston Terriers a second chance at the happy, safe lives they deserve.
We’re counting down the days already and can’t wait to see familiar faces - and lots of new ones - at Crufts 2026.
