The Welsh Kennel Club is one of only two UK organisations to hold Championship Agility, Breed and Obedience on the same site. On  16th - 18th August, some 160 Agility partnerships, at the top of their game, gathered on the Royal Welsh Showground at Builth Wells to find the 2019 winners amongst the largest dog entry in Wales. With only one Championship ring, it needs judge’s collaboration with course design,  a good ring party, handler cooperation and a bit of Welsh sun to bring it all together. Based on reports from Judges Alan Mitchell and Gary Murphy.
