Should be a great day, and our dog Bronte:

Was a good day out..
Was a good day out..
Clear, sunny skies, a bit of a fresh breeze every now and then (which actually helped take the bite off the heat a bit).
Pretty much what I expected.. Lots of people and dogs there, fairly well-organized.
This is Bronte, me & family (Yes that is a Hatebreed shirt - one of my fav's):
Lots of room for doing as you please, spreading out, varying your pace as you please.
And set in the Morpeth NSW area in quite a picturesque country region in the Hunter Valley.
There was a kiddie's playground enclosure at the main park area - fun for lots of kids.
And the main street of Morpeth itself a short walk away too, with cafe's aplenty - it was real cool to walk up & down the area and see so many dogs tied up outside places and being walked etc.
Outside one of the pubs 3 smallish good-looking staffies were tied by thier masters' table - all 3 laying down happily in the sun after a big morning, whilst the beers flows well nearby - nice scene (unfort. didnt get any photos of that).
Didnt see one dog roam/run through/escape thier handler off leash at all either.
The local newspaper (The Maitland Mercury I think it's called) photographer took a few photos of our family group - with any luck we might be in it.
Also thought I saw myself briefly on the local news segment on the event this evening too, but I was probably mistaken.
Glad we went!
