First Place in Open, Judge: Mrs Jill Stevens (Cobstoneway)
Thank you to the committee for inviting me to judge, and to my two efficient stewards, and also to the exhibitors for their entries.
A four year old grizzle and tan bitch who caught my eye as she entered the ring. Lovely ottery head with short muzzle, correct bite, small ears and keen expression. Nice for size, spanning easily, with narrow ribs carried well back. Level topline held well on the move,and short, carroty tail. Harsh, double coat and loose pelt. Shown in first class order and moved effortlessly around the ring. BOB
