Class 2526 JHA 6-11

Two super young handlers in this class.

1st: Jayden Scott, what a fabulous handler in all departments. He was super attentive to his dog, who was giving Jayden a hard time wanting to sniff the ground on the move, this didn’t faze Jayden, he used encouragement and bait to get his dogs attention, never once did he pull the lead unnecessarily or get frustrated at the situation. A quiet handler, attentive and unassuming, Jayden listed to instruction, he made use of the whole ring and had neat turns. His sharp suit complemented his dog.

2nd: Eva Scott – what a sassy handler Eva is, she has all the right moves. She knows where the judge is, is super polite and friendly and has the nak of adding the right level of ring presence whilst showcasing her dog to its best. Her winning brother just listened to his instructions a little closer than Eva to take the top spot.

Class 2527 JHA 12-16

1st: Melissa Graham-Weall, a super attentive handler. Melissa stood alone however she would have been tough to match. Clean lines, tight corners and moved her dog at the right pace. A natural and kind handler.
