Second Place in Open - 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.
What a great class and a real privilege to have six top quality bitches and even the one that left without a card had quality but sadly not enough coat today.
Another top top quality bitch who was presented in the best of jackets ticking the breed checklist across the board from her dark nose to the tip of her thick carrot tail. She is a super champion and I was pleased to award her the Reserve CC today.
