Junior Handling 12-16yrs

Lewis Fraser (12).  This young man has to be complimented on his patience and professionalism.  He was handling a 6 month old puppy who to say was naughty was putting it mildly!!  At no time did he hurry his charge, but with kindness and gentleness he managed to get the better of the rascal while all the time speaking kindly to her.  Well done, I wish you the best of luck for the future and will be watching to see how you progress.
