First Place in Yearling - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Anne Heathcote (Saxheath)
I would like to thank you all for allowing me to go over your dogs and also our Stewards John and Marvin for keeping everything running smoothly enabling me to finish in good time .
I have to say that I found movement in a number of classes worrying . Although most dogs looked ok in profile when viewed from the front and rear there were too many moving closely and a few flicking wrists . This was reflected in my placings with the soundest being placed highest .
Mouths were good with just one level bite but there were both dogs and bitches which I could not span . Coats were , on the whole , pretty good .
18m b/t well balanced girl with a straight front , lovely head and dark eye , good reach of neck into well laid shoulders ,level topline held on the move , good rear angulation and harsh jacket with a thick pelt . Moved soundly . Pleased to award her the RCC .
