Pollard Canine Society

Thank you to those exhibitors who entered under me today, particularly as the weather was not on our side and was very wet, which did affect some dogs enjoyment and showmanship, and ultimately their placings. 

Thank you to both the society for the invite and my very efficient stewards.
