More than 300 Fox Red Labradors gather at Clarkson's pub
Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 25 Oct, 12:28 · Archive
More than 300 Fox Red Labradors and over 600 people gathered at Jeremy Clarkson's pub in Oxfordshire for a meet-up event.
More than 300 Fox Red Labradors and over 600 people attended the second Fox Red Meet at The Farmer's Dog, Jeremy Clarkson's pub in Asthall near Burford in Oxfordshire, on Saturday, October 24. BBC Oxford reports the pub welcomed more than 250 dogs, though other outlets cite over 300.
The event raised money for Shout, a charity providing 24/7 text messaging mental health support for farmers. A portion of the money raised through ticket sales went towards supporting the charity. Shout has partnered with Clarkson's alcohol brand Hawkstone to support British farmers.
Organi ser Michael Singer said the event was an 'unforgettable day' full of 'wagging tails, smiling faces and a shared love for our amazing breed'. He explained the meet-up started as a simple idea: he wanted an excuse to visit Clarkson's pub and thought organising a Fox Red Labrador gathering would be fitting. The second event followed for similarly lighthearted reasons, he said.
Jeremy Clarkson's partner Lisa Hogan attended and had the honour of choosing the winner of the Best Farmer's Dog Lookalike competition. The pub's Oliver Aucamp said it was 'thoroughly memorable', adding: 'We can safely say that we've never seen so many wagging tails all on one day.'
The event took place despite rainy weather. The first Fox Red Meet at the pub in 2024 had attracted 179 dogs, so the attendance at the second gathering represented a significant increase.
