First Place in Open - Bitch, Judge: Karen S Stockley (Foxfactor)
My grateful thanks go to the ScBTC for the opportunity to judge their Open Show, the lovely gift and the excellent lunch. It’s always an honour and privilege to judge at Club Shows. Thanks also to my stewards Jim Stewart and Helen Mc Kenzie.
I had some very nice exhibits to go over with some tough decisions to make.I was pleased to find that the vast majority were in fit condition, I found 3 with incorrect dentition and just one kinked tail. I thank the exhibitors for the entry and for gracefully accepting my placings.
Unfortunately ResBPIS was not awarded as I was informed there wasn’t an award so my apologies to the Puppy Bitch winner
3yo gr, a hotly contested class, small in number, high in quality with some close decisions, all the placed could change places another day. This bitch appealed to me for her femininity and size, very pleasing on the eye, she has a good head of correct proportions with good dentition, nothing not to like, she stands up well on neat, tight feet with an overall balanced outline, is easily spanned, well angulated, shown in excellent condition, harsh tight jacket, moves very well and holds a good outline going around, well-handled to BB.
