Scottish Kennel Club (23-05-2010)

First Place in Open - Bitch, Judge: Mrs M A Bailey

Show Critique:

A privilege to judge the SKC. With lovely weather. Good stewards which made the show run very smooth. I was sorry to see a few exhibits with straight shoulders which affects the front movement and a few with incorrect mouths. However, on the positive side there was a lot of quality and correct size in the breed, which where fit for function. Unfortunately the grass in the ring was very long, which made it difficult to access the movement.

Class Critique:

What a lovely class of quality bitches

Placing Critique:

One that as appealed to me from the ringside & she didn’t disappoint when going over her. A good working type. Broad skull strong muzzle, not over done in any way. Good varminty expression, good eye and neat ears. Straight front well laid shoulders. Level topline. Well muscled thighs. Good bend stifle, moved with drive, kept her topline on the move. Narrow throughout. In excellent coat, thick pelt. She’s built to do the job she was meant for. Showed & presented to perfection. BCC
