Second Place in Open, Judge: Mrs Sue Baxter (Mysulan)
First of all , sincere thanks go to Hilary and the committee for the
kind invitation to judge BT’s at this show and thanks to Kevin my
steward who kept things moving along nicely. Also I have grateful
thanks for the exhibitors who not only allowed me the opportunity
to go over their dogs but accepted my decisions in a sporting
manner.
General comments are as follows , I didn’t find any bad mouths
or kinked tails and coats were at differing stages of growth which
is quite normal . I would like to add that during examination of the
dogs on the table that it is not helpful for the owner to be feeding
or allowing the dog to lick at a treat constantly , attempting to
check the bite becomes almost impossible and adds to the
confusion for the dog, owner and judge, please keep this practice
for the training room and not in the show ring.
2 year old G&T bitch ( I see she is full sister to 2nd in post grad ) and it
could be said that some of the comments may also apply to her .
A lovely head , strong but with feminine expression .Teeth were of
a good scale compared to the jaw . .Ears of a lovely size and
position .Topline and tail set were good and size of tail was
commendable ….Jacket was good for texture .. Moved out well
…Her underline was very good with no hint of a tuck up …
