Gem is one of my dog agility trainer's many border collies. She and I have a special friendship and this photo was taken with my camera by her mum, whilst her dad and I swam with my own border collie and his pack of maybe six or seven at that time! It was such a wonderful outing with these gorgeous dogs and I loved this photo of Gem in the sparkling 'gem-like' water, with her ears pricked as she watched and waited for the ball to be thrown. The intelligence and focus in those eyes!
