12.30pm and 3.45pm in the main ring will be a must-see for dog lovers. Jessie French of Geordie Canine Services shows her skills and her dogs in an impressive Dog Obedience demonstration. She owns four dogs, including Marshall, a Belgian Malinois who competes in the working dog sport IPG, and Chief, a Dutch Herder who participates in protection dog trials. Rolo, her Jack Russell and Ralph, her Border Collie, do the agility and fun stuff and perform at the North East Dog Festival (Saturday 30th and Sunday 31st August at Kirkley Hall). Jessie gained her Level 4 Diploma in Canine Behaviour after qualifying as a Registered Veterinary Nurse straight from school.
