First Place in Puppy - Dog, Judge: Mrs M Fleming (Flegato)
A big thank you to the committee for inviting me to judge my breed at their lovely Christmas show. It was my first time judging at a breed club show and it couldn’t have gone any better – the welcome was amazing, my stewards were fantastic and the atmosphere felt so harmonious and friendly. A true club show atmosphere. I am also immensely grateful to the exhibitors who entered and let me go over their lovely dogs. Thank you all so very much, I had an amazing day.
Temperaments were good and all dogs were spannable. Coats were in different stages which is OK. A number of exhibits would benefit from a little less condition.
10 months old richly coloured grizzle of handy size. Very typy puppy, strong in the head, with excellent scissor bite, big teeth and powerful jaw. Spanned easily and moved with purpose, keeping a level topline and using his lovely short carroty tail to his advantage. Was presented in excellent harsh coat on a loose pelt. A very accurate mover.
