First Place in Novice - Bitch, Judge: Mr. Stewart Golding (Beaconpike)
Firstly I would like to thank the club for inviting me to judge their open show thank you to my stewards Alan Horner Anna Duxbury and Graham Richardson for keeping things running smoothly. Thank you to the exhibitors for allowing me to judge their dogs. I thoroughly enjoyed my day and was delighted to judge a show I regularly attend myself. I was very pleased with all my main winners I had some quality dogs to judge on the day my decisions in some classes were made difficult and on another day could easily change places.
Very typey bitch, with the loveliest of heads really caught my eye, lovely size, she was very much enjoying her day as her tail never stopped wagging. Good lay of shoulder, nicely balanced throughout, easily spanned, excellent coat just coming in, pushed hard when she was called back in to compete for reserve best bitch unfortunately she couldn’t match the main winners on depth of coat.
