It was a sheer delight to judge your breed today. 

The exhibitors are to be congratulated for their sportsmanship. 

All the dogs judged today were in super healthy condition, no problems with eyes or skin.

1st: 5148 MORRIS, Mr A D & MORRIS, Mrs H K Ashowai Rockin Robin - I felt sorry for this class of babies, the wind was now in full force and the noise of the tents and the vibrating ring tape was having an effect on all three. We took our time with the class and everyone had another go on the move and this seemed to settle them all. 1st, full of promise and maturing nicely. She was so pretty in the head department, moderate width of skull, nice detail on her forehead but not excessive. Her eyes are healthy and correctly shaped. Her muzzle is a good length and her lips are nicely padded. Super neck and she has the correct topline. Her tail is high set and she carries it well on the move. She has lovely bone and substance throughout. Once she settled, she moved so freely and confidently around the ring. Her coat was beautifully presented and she was well handled.

2nd: 5142 GRIMSHAW, Mrs S Sharpuggles Wednesday Girl - Again this youngster took a little time to settle, once she did she moved with real ease around the ring. Very feminine in head, healthy almond shaped eyes, nice detail on her forehead and cheeks, correct head proportions. Strong neck that leads to good shoulders. Her rear is moderately angulated with sound hocks. Her high set tail is carried nicely on the move. She has fabulous bone and substance throughout. Lots to like here.
