Among dogs from the South Bay taking part are Bogey, a 3-year-old Tibetan spaniel owned by Gabrielle Beaubrun of San Pedro, and Beau, a Bedlington terrier owned by Joe and Jeanne Carrier of Torrance.
(That's Bogey in the lead above, followed by Magi and Beau.)
Talented dogs. And good looking to boot!

Good luck to everyone! (I guess you shouldn't really say "break a leg" in this instance, would you?)

Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.
