Wealdstone & Northolt Open Show

10/12/2023

I want to thank the members of committee for the judging appointment and exhibitors who entered to support the show. The show was well run and welcoming. I had good entry in several breed classes while entry of some breeds was depleted due to the long day and being close to the LKA show. I was impressed by the tenacity and persistence in the exhibitors especially by a few, whom I learned post show, were novices to handling dogs at competitive breed shows. They stayed on and worked well with their young dogs albeit it was a long, wet and cold day. I hope they and their dogs went home happy and proud of themselves. Keep up with the good work.
