First Place in Puppy - Bitch, 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.
dark grizzle in super coat and condition with strong but feminine head with powerful jaws. Lovely body lines and narrow throughout, with well ribbed up body of good length. Firm top line and correct tail set and carriage, she stepped out well holding her really good outline and pushed the dog very hard, only missing out on the narrowest of margins for the top spot. One we’ll hear more of I’m sure.
