Bath Championship Show (25-05-2012)

First Place in Junior - Dog, Judge: Mrs Diane Rayner (Stoneygin)

Show Critique:

It was a real privilege to be asked to judge this show. I had a very good entry which pleased me and hope I did it justice. The dogs were generally in good fit condition, came across a few that were too thin, you can’t expect a young active dog to gain good muscle tone if you don’t feed them enough. They must feel miserable kept in that condition, constantly hungry. It was a very hot day, but we tried to keep them in the shade as long as possible but a few were showing signs of the heat. There were a few that looked rather scruffy with long nails and looked as if they had forgotten to take off their carpet slippers. But most were a pleasure to go over.
I was very pleased with my winners.

Placing Critique:

Racier type with excellent upper arm and shoulders. Easily spanned. Good scissor bite and neat ears. Level top line and tail set. Well angulated. Good coat. Moved and showed very well.
