First Place in Limit, Judge: Mrs Karen Stockley (Foxfactor)
My thanks to the show Committee for the opportunity to judge at this lovely County Show and to my steward who kept things running smoothly inspite of the wet weather.Although it was light rain I chose to judge outside in a more than adequate ring where some exhibits especially in the puppy class weren’t moving their best possibly due to the wet fairly long grass and some going cardless who on another day would have been placed.I found my main winners to have enough bone and substance without being too big therefore able to do a days work in the terrain they originate from.Quite a few exhibits needed their claws trimmed.I was disappointed as I’d waited to find that my BOB and BPIB didn’t stay to represent the breed in the BIS ring.
a quality bitch with a lovely otter head,neat small well set on ears.good bite with large teeth,appealed for type and size,shown in exellent harsh coat with good pelt,shown and moved well,a worthy RBOB.
