We want to let you know about some pretty

exciting news… and maybe even let you in on one of the canine world’s best kept secrets.

Although somewhat overshadowed by the far more popular World Cup, the Canine Woof Cup is undoubtedly the biggest sporting event of the dog year. Maybe it would be better known if it didn’t directly coincide with FIFA’s copycat tournament every year. But hey, tradition is tradition. And it just wouldn’t feel right not having

a Woof Cup once every 28 dog years.

So as you can imagine there was a lot of buzz in the last few weeks leading up to the moment that the host city of the 2026 edition of the tournament was to be drawn out of the hat.

The favorites were New York, Paris, Milan, and London… so it’s fair to say that it was a bit of shock when little old Barksville was pulled out. Before you start wondering, no this wasn’t a

goblet of fire moment… we did apply but we never expected to actually get it!

The residents took the news pretty well and threw a huge party to celebrate. But as the confetti settled and they were confronted

with the reality of what they’d signed up for, the pups realized they had a whole lot of work ahead of them.

To organise the opening ceremony and the grand final’s half-time show in a matter of a few weeks is no easy task. Not to worry however, as a preparation committee has been quickly established and they are going to get right down to business.

This will be a Woof Cup no self-respecting woof-ball fan will want to miss, and one nobody will forget.
