    Quite a few working Beardies in the Obedience rings - and their breed classes are usually well filled at Champ. shows. Perhaps it's a regional thing, but here are three within 100 yds. of where I'm sitting.

    I'm going back very many years now, but I can remember seeing one Beardie at Crufts in the Obedience Ring - Scapa, if I remember rightly.

    There was also one at my local club - never ever stopped barking, even when it had a dumbbell in its mouth!

    But I have to say it's a very long time since I've seen one.

    There's a couple by me, and we were in Cornwall a couple of weeks ago, and we saw a couple with 5 , plus I see plenty at dog shows and ringcraft.
