Does your Pooch have a solid beard or some fancy clothes?

To cap off Ballarat Heritage Weekend and the annual Ballarat Beard and Stache Competition, Hop Temple is holding it's Dog Beard and Stache Comp.

The legends at PETstock are sponsoring the comp and have given them some awesome prizes to spoil your dog.

The comp kicks off at 2:00pm and there will be two categories:

Best Dog Beard and/or Stache (first prize $250 PETstock Voucher).

Best Dressed Doggo (first prize $100 PETstock Voucher).

So if your dog has a beard or a bit of creative flare, the team hope to see you there at the Hop Temple.

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
