First Place in Veteran - 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.
blue/tan 8 years and in great condition with a masculine head , dark eye and big teeth in a strong jaw. Good for size and type with level topline and well set and carried tail. In super condition with good coat and pelt. Easy span and picks up light. Moved soundly.
