First Place in Open - Bitch, Judge: Mr D Mitchell (Paleside)
I would like to thank Blackpool for inviting me to give my first CC’s, and to the exhibitors for a lovely entry of super dogs which were a pleasure to go over. My two stewards for doing a sterling job. It was such a shame the weather turned on Friday morning, the heavens opened and it blew a gale. But you turned out non the less. Overall I was pleased with the movement back and front. Dogs were in good fit condition, some would benefit from ringcraft for both dog and owner. From what I saw today things are good for the future of our breed.
Strong otter head, keen dark eye, good dentition, dark V shaped ears, long strong neck, well laid shoulders, good length of rib, good rear angulation. Carrot tail flows off a level topline. Good thick pelt and double jacket. Stood on thick pads and tight feet. Came to hand well, a picture of health and balance. Handled to perfection. BCC, BOB.
