Second Place in Veteran - Dog, Judge: Mrs Nancy Hogg
My thanks go to the exhibitors who showed their dogs under me. I was very pleased with my entry, both numerically and depth of quality of the exhibits. The ring was large, even and the grass cut very short. I had two very able stewards and the predicted rain stayed away. What more could I ask for ?.
On the whole the presentation was good although some dogs lacked condition. Temperaments were good. Coats were variable. I found one kinked tail, one wrong mouth but more than a few small teeth.
Another lovely veteran who does not look his nearly 11 years. Shade longer in muzzle than winner. In good coat. Strode out covering the ground well. Both of these dogs are a credit to their owners.
