Kelly goes to Crufts

Kelly Lawless, a student at Cross & Passion College in Kilcullen, recently represented Ireland at the International Junior Dog Handler Competition at Crufts in London.

It was her second time to do so.

Kelly's family, who moved to Sunnyhill from Dublin about eight years ago, breed a variety of thoroughbred dogs.

Kelly was chosen from 17 finalists at the Junior Handlers Association of Ireland Competition, sponsored by Masterfoods. In both competitions she handled an Australian Silky Terrier.
