Border Union Agricultural Society

Breed Results: Pointer (Day 2)

Thank you to border union for inviting me to judge today I have loved this show for many years its kind and so well put together. The fact that exhibitors can park behind the tents is a pleasure. I like it even more now I live only 11 miles away. The setting is wonderful. Thank you to the exhibitors for a quality entry it was a pleasure to see. My steward Gavin was kind in allowing the breed club show not to be waiting for any length of time for exhibitors in the main show I hope nobody missed any classes.
