Bath Canine Society

Breed: Australian Shepherd

Many thanks for your entries and apologies for not moving them as much as I would usually do but with the heat felt it better to take that into consideration, dogs and handlers did a great job and coped so well, in fact better than me. Thanks also to my steward who keep things going despite the heat.
