First Place in Minor Puppy - Bitch, Judge: Miss Rebecca Barber (Alcumlow)

Show Critique:

Thank you to SKC for inviting me to judge at their show, I thoroughly enjoyed my day. I was very pleased with my entry, thank you to all the exhibitors who value my opinion enough to enter their dogs under me. There were some very strong classes and some very pleasing youngsters. I was very pleased with my principle winners and I was delighted to see my BOB get shortlisted in a strong group and my BPIB get TPG3 in the puppy group. It was also an honour to make up two new well deserving champions, making it three new champions in one day over the two shows, which I believe is a new breed record.

Class Critique:

A very nice class of quality puppies, I am sure my top 3 will change places many times

Placing Critique:

A quality 7 month old grizzle bitch, a balanced puppy, presented today in perfect jacket. Nice head with strong jaw and keen expression, good length of neck into well placed shoulders, enough bone, good pasterns and neat feet. Narrow throughout, well ribbed back with good length to give her the correct flexibility. Level topline, correct tailset and excellent rear angulation. She moved out beautifully, covering the ground well. Pleased to award her BPIB and I was delighted to watch her get TPG3.
