First Place in Junior, Judge: Mrs Jill Stevens (Cobstoneway)
My thanks to the committee for inviting me to judge and for their hospitality on the day. Thanks also to the exhibitors for a lovely entry of quality dogs. All exhibits were clean and nicely turned out, and I found no kinked tails, only one imperfect bite, and all males were entire.
BP & TPG2. 8 month grizzle and tan dog, litter brother to the puppy class winner. Caught my eye as he entered the ring. Good head and expression, with excellent bite and keen, dark eye. Lovely lay back of shoulders, straight front, easily spanned and so narrow throughout. Flat ribs, good angulation all round, and sturdy hindquarters. Slightly up on leg but moved with such ease and accuracy for one so young. BP & TPG2
