First Place in Graduate, Judge: Anna Duxbury (Ridgebow)
I would very much like to thank the officers and committee for offering me this appointment, and for their hospitality. Thanks also to the ring steward who kept things running smoothly, and of course to all the exhibitors for allowing me the privilege of going over their dogs. Temperaments on the day were excellent, coats were very varied. I found one dog with an incorrect bite and all male dogs were entire.
Grizzle and tan dog, loved his ottery head with strong flat skull, good earset and large teeth. Nicely balanced and easily spannable. Good layback of shoulder, with narrow front, straight legs of good bone and small feet. Excellent coat and pelt, and in good fit condition. Moved very well with straight driving action. Not overdone in any way. Well-handled, pleased to award him BOB.
