First Place in Junior - Bitch, Judge: Mr. David Matthews (Tojamatt)
My thanks to the Society for the invitation to Judge one of my favourite shows, it didn’t all go to plan with the weather playing its part. I would like to thank all the exhibitors for going along with my decision to stay outside despite the weather, and my special thanks to stewards Judy Carr and Audrey Coltart for braving the weather also. Also my thanks to Euan for posting my judging book and critique notes and to whomever handed it in.
Sorry for delay, holidays and work have played their part. I had some lovely dogs to go over and thank you all for bringing them.
A Grizzle bitch of a handy size, very pleasing head with dark eye and Keen expression with good strength of muzzle, big teeth and good reach of neck flowing into well placed shoulders, good in rib and loin. Nice topline and tail set with short thick tail, presented in excellent harsh double coat with thick loose pelt she is easily spanned and moved well both ways, was considered for higher award, one I will follow with interest
