Windsor Dog Show Society

Breed: Chihuahua (Smooth Coat)

Windsor Championship Dog Show –

Saturday 28th June 2025

Chihuahua Smooth Coat

Judge – Miss A S K Henshaw

My sincere thanks to the Officers and Committee for the privilege of awarding CCs at their show, and my two stewards, who worked tirelessly to ensure efficiency. We certainly had the weather for a fantastic day; I must say, I was a little disappointed with the ring; I have shown in better. Having grown up with this breed and seen some fine examples of breed type over the years, today, I found that the quality of exhibits was more so in the bitches, nonetheless, I did have some nice males to go over.

Unfortunately mouths still seem to be a challenge – although I saw no visible signs of distress, we do need to pay attention to ensuring the correct bite. My thanks to exhibitors for their entries and sportsmanship, noting that we all take the best dog home at the end of the day.
