Bakewell Show (02-08-2017)

Second Place in Post Graduate, Judge: Mr Colin Powell (Bowtman)

Show Critique:

Had a very good entry for this supported breed, only to be hampered by some of the worst condition I have ever judged in.
Had to be towed of the field before I started judging, traffic tall backs went on for hours even though the show was delayed for half an hour.
Felt sorry for the organizers and exhibiters alike, a lot of absentees and late arrivals,
On another day with kind weather, placing could be quiet different has a lot of dogs didn’t want to be outside in a ring with no cover and foul weather conditions.
Dog were good in general no bad mouths some with no coats, and soft muscle tone, and a few unspannable.

Placing Critique:

D. A lot to like about this dog, very typical of the breed, Good head and expression, good reach of neck ribs well back and strong lion, moved well covering the ground with ease, could have been reversed if I could have spanned him.
