Bournemouth Championship Show (13-08-2022)

Second Place in Special Beginners - Dog or Bitch, Judge: Mr. David Matthews (Tojamatt)

Show Critique:

Many thanks to Bournemouth Canine Association for asking me to judge, and also thanks to my two more than able stewards. It was a really hot day topping 35 degrees C, if I had entered I wouldnt have attened so I understand perfectly why we had quite a few absentees, and a outbreak of covid from a previous show, added to this ,many thanks to everyone who entered. I had some really nice examples of the breed to go over, and some hard decisions. The tent provided us with some much needed shade, and the dogs behaved very well and coped with the heat admirably. I had a couple of dogs not move as well as I know they can so gave them another opportunity to move again, and they put in a much better performance .The dogs were all presented in good order, clean teeth, short nails and tidy coats. A few coats were outstanding, harsh and dense, among the best I’ve come across.

Placing Critique:

A two year old bitch pretty bitch quite feminine ,with good expression a handy size, in proportion with narrow straight front on neat feet, nice neck and shoulder placement comes to hand well, two nice examples of the breed
