First Place in Junior - Bitch, Judge: Mr David G Winsley (Davmar)
Though the standard calls for a narrow body I found many dogs who were too skinny & I could easily feel their ribs! Heads were quite disappointing, many had long weak muzzles not the proportions one associates with an Otters head. Many exhibits lack the small round foot & I doubt if they would cope with the exercise it needs to follow a horse. Coats were mixed & many just a seasonal problem.
this youngster came into the class & dared me to ignore her, one that takes the eye. Full of attitude, alert & watching everything going on. Lovely feminine head, again with the correct expression, nicely balanced outline. Ultra straight & sound front, mature well made body & nicely covered. Well angulated hindquarters, another one with good feet & enough bone. Moved soundly both ways, in good coat of the correct texture. Couldn’t deny her the CC
