Second Place in Novice - Bitch, Judge: Mr Colin Girling (Benattivo)
Thank you to the committee of the Richmond show for granting my first appointment to award CC’s, I was well looked after on the day and had great support from my stewards which was very much appreciated. It was a real privilege to judge some wonderful examples of the breed and the future looks bright as there were so many wonderful puppies and juniors. I really appreciated all my entries and rewarded those in the best condition on the day, I also acknowledge that many had good breed type and quality even amongst those not in the challenge and some that were not placed in the stronger classes.
Lots of good points with this two year old bitch who is slightly deeper but equal in many ways to my winner. I liked her top line and carrot tail which is well set on, also liked her rear drive.
Others in this class were a little heavy so please feel for rib and look for waistlines.
