First Place in Open, Judge: Miss Anita Harrison (Iacheslei)
My thanks to the Society for the invitation and to all the exhibitors for entering and accepting my decisions. The ring was of a decent size and fairly level but quite exposed, which may have been why some exhibits were not very enthusiastic, especially as judging was delayed due to an accident on the M1. All mouths were good and all dogs entire, coats were at various stages . I was very pleased with my main winners, and delighted to see my Best of Breed take Terrier Group 2.
4 year old grizzle dog – up to size but just spannable, masculine head, well laid shoulder, good rib top line and tail set, decent bone and good feet. presented in good coat and condition.
