VOM, in collaboration with Drammen Dog Centre and the Animal Behaviour Centre, presents DYREGALLAEN 2022 – for those of us who love animals.

It's time to focus on those who spend a lot of their time on animals in general and dogs in particular. A focus on what animals mean to us humans. DYREGALLAEN is for EVERYONE! 

Not just those who appear on the podium with rosettes, trophies and awards, but for those who are passionate about, engage with, spend time on and have their lives and daily routines enriched by animals. Not least the important role animals play for people and society.

Festkveld in Drammen on 29 October

On Saturday 29 October at 7 p.m. there will be a gala dinner at Tollboden Hotel, Drammen, and the DYREGALLA 2022.

To top off the evening's theme, Robert Sørlie will give a one-hour lecture to the guests. Through film and photographs, he will tell of his life as one of the world's best dog sled drivers and take us with him to both the Finnmark Plateau and Alaska!

The 15 finalists are invited here and the winner in each category will be announced this evening!

A fantastic prize package, worth kr. 4500, is provided by VOM OG HUNDEMAT to the winner of each category.

The lunch and the lecture are open to ALL.
