Southern Bichon Frise Breeders Association 25th March 2023

Judge Diane Loye

I would like to thank the committee for the invitation to judge at their open show and to the exhibitors for their entries. I thoroughly enjoyed my day and I`d like to thank my steward for running the ring efficiently.. I do feel that some were lacking body and substance. Some were very fine with no spring of rib. Nails also were a concern on some exhibits as it affected their movement.
