Second Place in Open - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Nancy Hogg
My thanks go to the exhibitors who showed their dogs under me. I was very pleased with my entry, both numerically and depth of quality of the exhibits. The ring was large, even and the grass cut very short. I had two very able stewards and the predicted rain stayed away. What more could I ask for ?.
On the whole the presentation was good although some dogs lacked condition. Temperaments were good. Coats were variable. I found one kinked tail, one wrong mouth but more than a few small teeth.
Like this bitch very much and gave her RCC last time I judged. Just short of coat today. She is very feminine with a typical head and short, strong muzzle. Nicely balanced. Narrow all through. Straight front. Good bend of stifle. Moves so well.
