First Place in Post Graduate - Dog, Judge: Mr M. Hollingsbee (Otterwood)
I would like to express my thanks to the Officers and Committee of the Club for inviting me to judge their show, my second opportunity at a Breed Open Show.
I was struck by the wonderful atmosphere in the hall with every result being greeted with spontaneous, enthusiastic applause. The exhibitors in Scotland certainly are a very sporting lot!
I found no bad mouths but front movement in some exhibits left a lot to be desired. However my class winners did not disappoint me
grizzle dog, well up to size, good coat and pelt, level topline with good shaped tail nicely set, good reach of neck, neatly groomed paws with thick pads, shown in excellent condition,
