He then records any audible noise and grades it from 0 to 6, Zero being no audible noise whatsoever. These categories reflect any possible flow abnormalities. </span><br /><br /><span>We are able to offer to members of either the GSP Club, GSP Association or the Central &amp; Southern GSP Society a discounted price of &pound;25.00 per dog, to non members &pound;30 per dog. Preference will be given to GSPs, however other breeds are welcome. All applicants must be pre booked via a form which will be available shortly. Registration documents MUST be brought to show. Time slots will run from approx 9.30 until 1pm. </span><br /><br /><span>For further enquiries or to prebook please contact Sue Harris (Barleyarch) via Facebook or email barleyarchgsps@gmail.com''</span></div>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
