Thank you to the committee for inviting me to judge at this friendly show also a thank you to my steward for keeping things flowing.

Such a shame that numbers are decreasing for these classes all over the country, As it’s a great time to lay the foundations for those handlers and potential judges of the future

Young Kennel Club

B, 12-17YRS

1ST Jessica Cooper ( Golden Ret)

As a learner starting out Jessica will gain confidence, she needs to talk to her dog more and listen to what the judge is asking her to do and if not sure ask the judge to repeat it, also remember the golden rule keeping your dog between you and the judge, im sure in time it will come together, well done

Others absent

Karen was confident but not cocky, she completed all that was asked without a fuss and kept her dogs attention at all times, giving reassurance and reward, ring patterns were precise and completed as was all that was asked of her.
