Second Place in Open - Bitch, 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.
Very attractive dark grizzle bitch, another lovely front with straight forelegs and neat well-padded feet. Good head with short strong muzzle. Easily spanned, she was in good fit condition. Good topline and tailset and moved with drive. A very happy lively showgirl as most dogs from this kennel. Coat and pelt in good order. Just preferred balance of 1 today.
