Second Place in Limit - Dog, Judge: Veteran/Dog Judge: Valerie Atkinson, Bitch Judge: Sue Spafford
Val Atkinson – Dogs
Thank you so much to the committee for inviting me to judge. The welcome was warm and the standards of exhibits high. Sportsmanship was very evident to see and this made for a really lovely atmosphere.
I apologize for the delay in these critiques but I took very poorly and spent some time hospitalized.
Sue Spafford – Bitches
I would like to thank the committee for giving me the opportunity to judge at the show. Together with my fellow judge, Valerie Atkinson (Read Wolf) – dogs. We had a super entry but a shame there were so many absentees on the day. We both agreed on our joint decisions for BoB, RBoB and BP.
3 year old grizzle dog a bit out of coat but evidence of it coming through. Well proportioned head but a little heavy in ear, good bite. Easy to span with good layback of rib and strong loin. Well muscled throughout. Straight front and tight feet. Front movement OK but a little lacking in drive from the rear.
