Second Place in Puppy - Bitch, Judge: Mr Dave Matthews (Tojamatt)
Really pleased to be invited to judge the midland open show, so my thanks to the committee for inviting me and for the hospitality received. Many thanks to Margaret Bailey and Paul Brannan for stewarding and making things run smoothly and keeping me on track. Also my thanks to the competitors for taking my decisions so well and for bringing real quality to the show ring it was hugely appreciated, whether you were first or third there were some close decisions and exceptional quality.
Lovely red grizzle bitch with a cracking head and expression and well placed ears. Narrow straight front who was easily spanned with good topline and tailset, lacking coat today, a nice bitch that didn’t settle on the move at all today which cost her the class.
