We are delighted to welcome a new sponsor (but an old acquaintance) who has long been an advocate of purebred dogs. The challenge she is sponsoring is an affectionate reminder that old dogs might be old, but they can still do what they were bred to do!
The Challenge: We all know how special our old boys and girls are. They have wisdom earned from years on this earth, but still have the heart and wonder of a youngster. They are game to prove that, “I might be old, but I can still do what I was bred to do.” Can that dog still hunt? Catch a ball in mid air? Stare down an upstart sheep or tackle a set of weaves like they did back in the day? Show our judges a dog that still “has it.”
Who can enter: This contest is open to participants across the world.
Sponsor: Cheryl from Texas
The prize:$100 Visa cash card
