First Place in Puppy - Bitch, Judge: Mrs J Carr (Wreighaugh)
My thanks go to the Committee of the NBTC for their invitation to judge their Open Show. I was honoured to receive this appointment and am incredibly grateful to the exhibitors who gave me such a great entry. It was a most enjoyable day and special thanks go to my Stewards, Andrea Pitt and Mark Atkinson, for keeping me on track and helping the ring to run smoothly.
11 month old Grizzle and Tan. Litter sister of best dog puppy. Lovely balanced outline. Feminine head with good teeth and correct bite, strong muzzle, nice eye and expression. Good narrow front, straight legs and well cushioned feet. Ribbed well back and easily spanned. She has a good topline, which she held well on the move, and correct tailset and carriage. Lovely double coat and good pelt. Nice racy quarters providing power on the move which is what won her BPB and BPIS over her brother.
