Second Place in Post Graduate, Judge: Anna Duxbury (Ridgebow)
I would very much like to thank the officers and committee for offering me this appointment at this lovely agricultural show, and for their hospitality. Thanks also to the efficient and helpful ring steward and most of all to all the exhibitors for allowing me the privilege of going over their dogs. It was a very windy day, which bothered some dogs on the table. Temperaments on the day were excellent, coats were very varied and all male dogs were entire.
2 year old grizzle bitch. Smaller frame than 1 but nicely balanced overall. Attractive head with short strong muzzle. Good length of neck onto well laid on shoulders with straight front to good neat feet. Easily spanned with good length of rib and well angulated rear. Coat and pelt in very good order beautifully groomed as are all from this kennel. Handled very well in windy conditions, she moved easily round the ring. Just preferred overall balance of 1 today.`
