A Grimsby boy and his adored canine friend made it all the way to Crufts this year, and placed second in the biggest dog show in the world.
Reuben Parrish received his springerdoodle, Vega, as a special gift from his family during the coronavirus pandemic, when he sadly lost his grandad. Vega became a friend to Reuben, and they together started training in dog agility and obedience.
In February, the pair travelled to the Kennel Club’s prestigious dog show, which welcomes 18,000 competitors and hundreds and thousands of visitors each year. Reuben and Vega competed in the Young Kennel Club competitions, winning a second-place rosette in the Basic Obedience 6-11 Years category.
