I was attracted to her dog’s way of working and got to see him run again in the final there.Viola works as a veterinary surgeon yet finds time to train her dogs to compete at continental and world-class competition.In this interview Viola explains how she got started with working sheepdogs, the traits she looks for in a dog, where she gets her dogs from and the type of training facilities she uses.Support the show
