First Place in Minor Puppy - Bitch, Judge: Mr. Stewart Golding (Beaconpike)
Sorry for delay in critiques, work commitments had to take priority. Thank you to the committee for inviting me to judge the October show which was brought forward in conjunction with the May show. Thank you to my two stewards for keeping the ring running smoothly, which wasn’t easy with two shows running side by side. Thank you to the Exhibitors for a lovely entry and accepting my decisions in a sportsmanlike manner. I had some difficult decisions especially in the bitch classes where I just didn’t have enough cards to hand out. Coats from last time I judged had improved and it was a pleasure to see so many in correct double coat of depth. On the whole movement was good. I did find a couple of incorrect bites and one kinked tail
What an eye-catching puppy, nice otter head with correct bite, well placed ears, narrow front and good shoulders, nice length of rib, racy rear standing on small tight feet with thick pads, nice topline which she carried on the move, she moved out very well coming and going for one so young. A correct double coat finished the picture. Pleased to award her best puppy in breed.
