First Place in Post Graduate - 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.
Grizzle and Tan bitch with feminine head, flat skull and dark eyes with keen expression. A narrow straight front, good topline and tail set and excellent double coat and pelt, flowing neck and shoulders and good rib, moved well with plenty of drive from a well constructed rear assembly, spanned with ease.
