It's Emma Clitheroe's first time at The Kennel Club's International Agility Festival
The event is on this weekend and open to the public. There are over 2000 dogs at the Showground, with over 700 handlers from as far as Singapore. Emma told Rob Persani about her reasons for working with Smudge on agility - just after we recorded this, Emma came third with her dog Smudge in the Grade 1 large agility!
