First Place in Open - Dog, Judge: Miss Rebecca Barber (Alcumlow)
I would like to thank the committee for their hospitality, I thoroughly enjoyed my day. Thank you to all of the exhibitors for giving me such a good entry of quality dogs. I judge according to the breed standard and I felt that my winners today were extremely fitting.
A quality blue and tan dog, in excellent coat with correct blue colouring. Otter-like head with a keen expression and dark eye. Good reach of neck flowing well into excellent bodylines, narrow, with good depth of chest, correct angulation front and rear, well balanced which was emphasised on the move. This dog is extremely fitting of the breed standard, pleased to award him the DCC.
