First Place in Open, Judge: Mrs Jill Stevens (Cobstoneway)
Thank you to the show committee for inviting me to judge at this friendly, well run show, and also to my efficient steward, and to the exhibitors who entered their dogs and accepted my decisions in a sporting manner. I found no kinked tails and all males were entire.
Some quality exhibits leading to close decisions.
2 year grizzle and tan bitch of excellent size and type. Good length of body, pleasing topline and tailset held well on the move. Good head with excellent bite and strong muzzle. Well presented in harsh double coat, with loose pelt and neat feet. Correct length of rib and easily spannable. Well angulated, and moved well with plenty of drive from the rear. BOB and TG2.
