First Place in Post Graduate - Dog, Judge: Mrs Julie Guvercin
Thank you to all exhibitors for your entries I had a good cross section of dogs to choose from. Some dogs that I have admired in the past were either not in coat or didn’t move well and others that I’ve not noticed before, were ‘found ‘ on the table. We must all remember judging should be on the day and not on what something has won or not won, beforehand. I’m sure the same dogs could be placed differently on another day under me, some that did or didn’t perform affected their placings accordingly.
Some super puppies coming through, with all four of my puppy class winners looking very promising. They gave me some hair splitting decisions.
light grizzle who catches the eye for his showmanship initially and then his lovely balance. Have done him well before and haven’t changed my mind. Typical head, neat ear and good eye. Mature body of good length with tail perfectly set and it never stops wagging! Moves soundly and was in good body condition, just lacking a little in topcoat, but what was there was harsh.
