Second Place in Minor Puppy - Dog, Judge: Anna Duxbury (Ridgebow)
I would very much like to thank the officers and committee for offering me my first club show in this lovely light, large hall. The hospitality was wonderful! Thanks also to the efficient ring stewards and most of all to all the exhibitors for their wonderful entry and allowing me the privilege of going over their dogs. Sincere thanks for the sporting manner in which my decisions were accepted. Temperaments on the day were excellent, coats were very varied – some good dogs were penalised for not having double coat. No mouths were undershot and all male dogs were entire.
6 month old red grizzle dog at his first show. Smaller frame than 1, with good head and expression. Good straight front legs onto neat feet. Good underline. Very good coat and lots of loose pelt. Easily spannable. Slightly less bend of stifle than 1, and didn’t move quite as well as the winner but lots to like in this happy little showman.
