Second Place in Post Graduate - Bitch, Judge: Mr David G Winsley (Davmar)
I last judged the breed in 2017 so most of the dogs were new to me. I felt that the breed is losing that ‘ otter head’ appearance, fore-faces appearing to be too long. Poor front construction in many was a deciding factor in my placing, our ring didn’t help, but the conditions were the same for everyone.
I liked her size & shape. Nice expressive head, narrowing body with good depth. Good turn of stifle, correct tailset. In a good quality coat, moves well behind, but would prefer a more positive front action.
