JOE GRADY of Two Coves Farm, pictured right, demonstrates sheep herding with his dog Nuala at the Topsham Fair Tuesday afternoon. Grady has performed with his animals for several years at the fair. “It’s become a key piece of what we do every year,” said Grady. “August and September we do a lot of dog demos.” “People love it, and I like showing what the dogs can do,” he added. “Though it’s hard on days like today with the heat.” With temperatures approaching 90 degrees Tuesday afternoon, Grady cut the demonstration a little short to give the animals a break from the heat, which Nuala took advantage of by promptly laying down in the water to cool down. Grady and Nuala will be back at the fair on Sunday with demonstrations at 11 a.m., 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. NATHAN STROUT / THE TIMES RECORD
