19th December 2010

Judge – Mrs Camille Pentland

I would like to thank the Committee of Chepstow & District Canine Society for asking me to take on this judging appointment. I was proud to be able to fill in for the late Jan Lefevre. Unfortunately the weather took it’s toll on attendance at the show, but those that made the journey appeared to be having a good time. I was able to secure the use of my father and his 4x4 to be able to get out of my village! I thoroughly enjoyed my day, and hope the exhibitors did too. Also, many thanks to my steward who was drafted in at very short notice due to the fact that my own steward was unable to get off of the mountain she lives on.
