Many thanks to the committee in inviting me to judge there 60th Anniversary show. I was pleased with such a good entry with very few absentees and found what I was looking for in all my class winners. There was a quality in depth in this breed and a lot of hard decisions had to be made. Without writing the same about eery class winner, I would like to observe that these winners all had the following attributes
They were all medium size with short backs, coarse flat coats and had reach and drive, which has improved since I last judged them. Heads varied but my winners had slightly rounded skulls and with sufficient breadth, well defined stops, Eyes were medium sized and of the correct shape and colour. Ears were set high and had strong jaws with correct bites and dentition. Slightly arched necks and well laid shoulders, straight forelegs with slightly sloping pasterns. Deep chests with well sprung ribs. Broad hips with a slightly sloping top line down to the croup and correct tail set.
Well bent stifles and no cow hocks. Feet were either round or spoon shaped and all well arched with well-padded soles.
My winners were

Thank you exhibitors for bringing your dogs under me and accepting my decisions and thank you to my steward for the company and efficient work. I hope you enjoyed your day as much as I did.
I’m sure some of the decisions would have been different if we had been able to judge them outside,
I wish my mentor Fio Roberts had been here to see me judge her favourite breed and hope that I did her proud
