For a third year KCAC joined up with Community Action Nepal in the Lake District for a sponsored dog walk inspired by Nepal’s Kukur Tihar - the DAY OF THE DOG.
Every year in Nepal, for one day, all dogs, including strays, are looked on with respect. A red tika is put on the dog's forehead and a garland of flowers around its neck and It is prayed to so that it will guard the house as it guards the gates of the underworld and in so doing divert destruction away from the home.
85 people and 36 dogs met at Lowther Castle for a rousing talk by our guest of honour, Lord Lang of Kersland and a morning walk through Lowther Park and a blessing in Lowther Church.
A special thanks to Jim and Vanessa Lowther
for generously allowing us to use Lowther Castle gardens for the event.
