competition aims
to put needy sheepdogs in the picture
Matthew
and Faye Hall are currently organising the latest in a successful
series of photographic competitions in aid of a charitable
organisation called Border Collie and Sheepdog Rescue.
This charity aims to provide sanctuary, rehabilitation and,
where possible, re-homing for Border Collie dogs that have
been mistreated or abandoned. You can find out more about
them by visiting their web site at http://www.bcsr.org.uk
They are delighted to announce that the internationally renowned
wildlife artist Pollyanna Pickering has agreed to judge the
competition, and details of the various different classes
and requirements for entry can be obtained from the address
information below. The competition will be judged in October
2003, and all proceeds/donations taken are to be forwarded
to the Border Collie and Sheepdog Rescue providing vital support
for their important work.
So far there are several official sponsors to the competition
including Pedigree, Company of Animals, Johnson's, Paw Prints.
Barbara Sykes is sponsoring two special classes, and Land
Rover Monthly magazine are sponsoring a special class for
'The best friend (and 4 x 4) by far...' In addition, Brown
Trout Publishing and Otter House are offering their support,
as well as numerous other generous parties.
