First Place in Limit - Dog, Judge: Mrs J Guvercin (Glebeheath)
Thank you to the committee for this appointment, everyone worked hard to make it an enjoyable day. This venue always has a super atmosphere, however, the ring is too small really to see outlines, being far too near the dogs and side profile movement is very difficult to see, let alone for the dogs to perform really well. Many moved poorly, not liking the smooth mats and although I had to judge them on this today, I think most would move much better outside in a big grass ring.
Some lovely dogs in this class.
Quality grizzle, who pushed hard for top honours, just preferred the expression of the dcc rdcc but nothing more than that, matching them both in every other respect. Nice head with lovely skull and strong foreface. Well made throughout with correct shape ribs back to his firm loin and well made rear. Lovely forehand, straight forelegs and neat feet, he was in super coat with thick pelt and grand condition and moved well.
