Newmarket & District Canine Society

Thanks to the committee for the invitation to judge the Toy Group at their show. It was unfortunate the weather was against us but thanks to the exhibitors who braved the elements today and to Brooke Taylor for her great stewarding. Understandably some winners decided to leave early due to the adverse weather condition. Unfortunately my notes may be a bit sparse due to the judges book getting too wet as the day went on.
