Scottish Kennel Club 205th Championship Show (17-05-2025)

First Place in Limit - Bitch, Judge: Mr Ian Hopper (Esyntona)

Show Critique:

Thank you to the following. SKC for inviting me to judge after my two previous appointments at Driffield were cancelled due to corvid restrictions and the storms.
The stewards who helped keeping the classes running smoothly at times we had to wait for exhibitors who were showing in the SKC Champ show in the adjacent ring. To all the exhibitors who entered their dogs under me, I was looking for dogs that were fit for function for what they were originally bred for even though very few get the chance to carry this out.

Class Critique:

Very strong class

Placing Critique:
