Third Place in Post Graduate - Dog, Judge: Mrs Trak Fryer (Irton)
I would like to thank the exhibitors for a lovely quality entry, the Club and committee for the appointment and my stewards Simon and Bev Jackson for their efficient help throughout the day. I was generally pleased with the overall quality, heads were good, pelts generally good and movement OK with many very typical exhibits on show. I was disappointed to find a number of poor mouths in the dog entry and to find a few exhibits presented down to the minute but totally lacking muscle, something that I find unacceptable in a dog with the Borders outlook on life.
A disappointing class in comparison to the last one.
Quality dog of a good type. he has a lovely head, well balanced and good for bone, in excellent coat and though rather undisciplined on the move covered his ground excellently, unfortunately he is rather big and difficult to span.
