Second Place in Maiden - 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.
8 month old Grizzle and Tan. Very feminine head on this still raw puppy. Nice short strong muzzle, lovely expression and neat well placed ears. Good length of neck and well angulated shoulders, good straight legs and neat feet. Good length of rib, and depth of chest easily spanned, narrow throughout. Good tailset and nice topline. Lovely loose pelt and good coat. She was a little unsettled on the move and her front movement needs to tighten up, which I’m sure it will. Looking forward to seeing her mature.
