TWO Bridgwater dog handlers came home with a Best of Breed award from Crufts 2023.
Alysha Branchflower, Charlotte Farrar and their Harrier Havoc were recognised at the international dog show, which was held at the NEC in Birmingham.
The prestigious event took place between Thursday, March 9 and Sunday, March 12.
Crufts aims to celebrate “every aspect of the role that dogs play in our lives”.
The competition was first held in 1891 and is the largest show of its kind in the world.
The show's website says: “Crufts is ultimately a celebration of all dogs.
“It celebrates working dogs, which are fit and healthy enough to perform the jobs for which they were originally bred, such as those in the gamekeeper classes or which line up for the police dog team operational and humanitarian action of the year award.
“Crufts also hails hero dogs through the Friends for Life competition.”
