First Place in Puppy - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Linda Coleman (Hartswelin)
I would like to thank the club for giving me the opportunity to judge the breed. I also thank the exhibitors for entering their quality dogs under me. The atmosphere and sportsmanship from exhibitors and spectators made my day a very enjoyable one. All bites were correct and I found one monorchid. Front movement in general still has a way to go and there were far too many flat open feet with thin pads especially in the males. That said I felt I had a quality entry.
Both blues, very feminine and of similar age. Both moved out well. I preferred the feet of the 2nd but the hind angulation of the 1st and felt she had more scope and a more mature coat.
