I would like to thank the committee for asking me to judge. I felt very honoured to be asked and to have a fabulous entry of some lovely dogs. My thanks to my stewards Mrs Doreen Smillie-Gray and Mr Andy Cook for keeping the ring well organised. Just two things that I was disappointed to see was so many dogs with dirty teeth and some of the younger dogs were a little over weight, for my liking, which spoiled their top line on the move.

This young lady was enjoying herself as she played her handler and runner up which was a pity as there was a few seconds that she stood correctly and moved. She has a very pretty expression and good head with a good reach of neck into clean shoulder. A nice firm top line, flowed into firm hindquarters. She stood on good strong legs and feet, but just needs time to settle.
