Second Place in Open - Bitch, Judge: Mr David G Winsley (Davmar)
I last judged the breed in 2017 so most of the dogs were new to me. I felt that the breed is losing that ‘ otter head’ appearance, fore-faces appearing to be too long. Poor front construction in many was a deciding factor in my placing, our ring didn’t help, but the conditions were the same for everyone.
Nice overall shape with a pleasing head type. Good reach of neck, narrow in body with a good depth of rib. Nicely made hindquarters, in a good coat & a very nice mover both ways.
