Northern Counties Yorkshire Terrier Club Open Show – Sunday 23rd November 2025

Judge – Mrs Kelly Hampton Lee (Kelrick)

I would like to thank the Northern Counties Yorkshire Terrier Club for inviting me to judge at their Open Show. I would also like to thank my stewards, Marc Spall and Matthew Clark, who organised the ring with great efficiency and professionalism, allowing the day to run smoothly from start to finish. It was a thoroughly enjoyable show with a warm and friendly atmosphere, and I was delighted with the quality of exhibits presented. Thank you to all the exhibitors for bringing your beautiful dogs for me to assess - it was a real privilege to go over them. I must also express my appreciation to the Committee for the generous judging gifts, which were very much appreciated.
