Best Puppy, Judge: Mrs. K. Wilkinson (Otterkin)
Lovely dark grizzle coat and a very attractive head with typical and correct 1/3rds to 2/3rds proportions. Real otter head with good dark eye. Nice straight front and she moved beautifully on small tight feet throughout the class and in the challenge for Best Puppy Bitch and eventually Best Puppy in Show. She spans so easily and has a fantastic thick, loose pelt and excellent double jacket. Excellent tail shape and comes straight off the top of her back. She had to go some to beat the others in her excellent class. Bodes so well for the breed for the future that we have so many good young ones coming through.
