But the event isn’t just for Dachshund owners, everyone is welcome to admire the sausage dogs.

Marcus Ackford, who launched Pup-Up Cafe, said: “My partner has a Dachshund called Peaches, and we actually started the cafes to find her a boyfriend!

“We had heard of a few puppy cafes, but nothing near our area so we started the Pup-Up Cafe in March.

“It’s a great day out, whether you have a dog or not, with lots of fun games, activities and competitions.

“But we’re still waiting to find Peaches a boyfriend!”

When and where is it?
