Weimaraner Association

The Weimaraner Association Championship Show 06.05.18 I was very pleased to accept the invitation to judge dogs here today and what a tropical hot day it was. Very enjoyable for those ringside but with no shade in the ring I felt it affected the performance of some dogs. My stewards Claire & Ruth were a great pair to work with during the day. I was pleased with my placings and grateful for your entries. I did notice that some heads are losing the length & even more the slight fold of ear which when combined with a moderate stop gives this breed that almost snooty, superior, aristocratic expression and the varied tailsets are certainly more obvious to the eye now when undocked.
