Blackpool Championship Dog Show 2018

Boxers Sunday 24 June

I thank Steve Hall and his committee for inviting me to this really superbly organised show to judge my beloved Boxers. I found lots of Boxers of a type that pleased me very much and virtually all were shown in great condition and handled well. I had such a great day. Thankyou all.
