The show's organisers extended their heartfelt thanks to all of the volunteers – people who cooked, served drinks, worked at the registration desk, helped to put up rings and direct traffic, worked in the rings, helped with judging, handed out rosettes, helped at the Have-A-Go-Agility, helped with publicity, and everyone who helped at the end of the show with returning the cricket pitch to its normal appearance.
"We must offer extra special thanks to Fiona Bell for her wonderful illustration, to Diane Kasperowicz for providing doggy first aid, to Vicky Carne the Dog Coach for organising the Have-A-Go-Agility, and to both Rodney Macken of Mackens and Andrew Hooper of Lea & Sandeman for their practical help with the bbq and bar," said one of the event's organisers Gill Thomas.
Chiswick House Gardens dog show is produced by CHOW in association with Chiswick House Friends together with Chiswick House Gardens Trust. The dog show is an annual event and our next show will take place at the end of September 2011
