First Place in Puppy, Judge: Mrs Elizabeth Barrett (Howthwaite)
I would like to thank York Canine Association for inviting me to judge their 125th anniversary show. Thank you also for the great hospitality and to my efficient ring stewards. I had an excellent entry of quality dogs to go over and would like to thank all of the exhibitors for their entries. Unfortunately with only three mixed sex classes, some very good dogs had to stand down the line, but all of my card winners had the attributes I look for.
Nine months old grizzle and tan dog. Lovely otter head with strong muzzle, flat skull, dark eye and good bite. Excellent shoulder placement and good return of upper arm. Well ribbed back and narrow throughout. Shown in a good harsh double coat with a thick pelt. Moved steadily, I preferred his rangier build over his litter brother. BPIB
