We must offer extra special thanks to Fiona Bell for her wonderful illustration and publicity designs, to Diane Kasperowicz for providing doggy first aid, to Vicky Carne the Dog Coach for organising the Have-A-Go-Agility, and to both Rodney Macken of Mackens and Andrew Hooper of Lea & Sandeman for their practical help with the bbq and bar
