First Place in Yearling - 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 bitch seemed to improve the more she showed. She has a well balanced head, well placed ears, good eyes & correct expression. Good neck with clean well angulated shoulders. Well made balanced body, excellent turn of stifle, neat feet & the correct amount of bone. Thick pelt & harsh coat. Sound mover both ways, well handled & showed well. RCC
