Open Show – 11/4/10

Firstly I would like to express my thanks to the officers and committee of the club for the very hospitable welcome I received. I had a very pleasant day & would like to thank the exhibitors for their support & sportsmanship. I thoroughly enjoyed the appointment.

Best in show went to the Mittel – Spellcast Secret & Lies, on the decision of referee Molly Hunter. Niki Allison and I were in agreement on Reserve Best in Show which was the Klein - Stormavon Special to Me. Best Puppy & Reserve Best Puppy in show awards went to the Mittels Caoilta Iceni, and Caoilta Wicca respectively. Best Veteran in Show went to the Mittel, Studholme Kiss N Tell.
