SBB. (2)

1. Hogg’s M-Frivllje At Coppercleugh ( imp Norway), Very feminine girl, well presented, moved beautifully, at one with her handler,

2. Simpson’s Ida Vom Holstef At Ovetil. There’s a lot to like about this girl. I liked her overall type, in good coat and fit condition, her exuberance on the move made assessment of movement very difficult but nothing that further training wouldn’t rectify, I hope her owner continues to show her.
