A pleasure to judge BIS at Wath, West Melton & District Open show and I thank the Officers and Committee for the invitation. From a quality line-up, BIS went to the stunning young Afghan dog, Drishaun Fair As A Lily. Super outline, masculine but showing refinement and class. Excellent conformation and simply glided around the ring with a style and panache associated with the breed. In immaculate coat and condition. I couldn’t look past him! RBIS the Border Collie bitch, Sh Ch Sashdan Never Ending Story. Looking great here. In excellent coat and good muscle tone. Pretty head and expression. So well made all through which reflects in her excellent profile movement, moving with a breed typical gait. Beautifully handled and presented. BPIS the Whippet, Supeta’s Mojito. Really promising young dog. Pleasing size, shapely outline, typical head and a sound mover in all directions. Think he will have a bright future and, despite the cold late afternoon, gave a polished performance. RBPIS the precious Sheltie baby, Tooralie’s Pie In The Sky. Just 6 months and full of promise. Particularly pleasing in head, expressive dark, almond eye and super tipped ears. Good conformation and moved out well in all directions. Excellent bone and tight feet. Lovely puppy coat put down to the minute. BVIS the super Beardie bitch, Greenybabes Princess Evie Avec Adjucent. 9 years old, so fit and in great condition. Liked her size and femininity. Good body, conformation and movement. Together with her handler, they made a winning combination.
