Judge – Mrs Juliet Cooper

GREYHOUNDS

I would like to express my sincere thanks to the officers and committee for giving me this opportunity. And to my excellent hard-working stewards.

Superb inside/outside rings this year made judging a joy.

Exhibits were all in excellent condition, temperaments were excellent and faultless in all the breeds I had the privilege of judging today. All, without exception across the breeds were clean and well presented, not even one dirty tooth!!!
