Bath. Chow Chow
Numerically a v good entry, thank you, but one that was both challenging and interesting. I tried to find Chows with the correct proportions, but with all judging compromises had to be made. Eyes were an issue with some. Congratulations on how well muscled all those present were. The dogs are certainly self-willed and decide what to do and when they want to.
