After a big week of trialling at the Supreme championship's in Northam WA, Wyanbah Biggin had a bit of luck & made it into the top 20 out of over 200 dogs. Hopefully she can have a little bit of luck in the top 20 tomorrow. The sheep have tested everybody , and we are very happy with how the team has handled them.
Congratulations to Lee Jamieson going into the top 20 with the leading score.
