Photos of our 2021 Show are now available for purchase from Darwin Photography Professionals - see link below.
Although half of the dogs entered & our original scheduled judge could not join us due to the COVID-19 roller coaster, a wonderful time & a relaxed evening was had by all.

A huge thank you again to our replacement judge Mr Peter R King (NSW) for stepping in last minute to ensure the show went ahead, & to Caroline Camilleri (Darwin Photography Professionals) for her continued sponsorship.

Of course, things do not happen without wonderful volunteers & a special thank you goes out to Sarah Gordon for her super-efficient stewarding & to Amie White for her accurate & experienced Challenge/Catalogue writing. Ladies - your blood is worth bottling.

PGC hope to see many of you back next year when hopefully the world has calmed down!

Be safe everyone - regards the PGC Committee.
