Thank you to the Crufts committee for inviting me to me to judge our wonderful breed at Crufts, such a huge honour & memorable day, I had 2 excellent stewards who kept the ring running smoothly and me on track. Its nearly 9 yrs since I last judged the breed and it has changed in many areas, but was delighted with my entry and in some of my classes, just didn’t have enough place cards.

Exhibitors please note, Judges are now asked to look out for dogs that they consider, according to the “Body Condition score” under or over weight, a few today were still carrying their Christmas indulgencies which had a detrimental effect on outlines & movement. A few things I noted, incorrect bites creeping in and some overly long in foreface, our breed head is so important. Flat feet with weak front or back pasterns and overly long hip to hock construction, all undesirable in the breed. The Crufts carpet is very unforgiving and showed up some very close hind movement, some accentuated by excessive coat in the hock region, colour of the tan needs to be watched, black pencilling is allowed but smudges and dark forefaces are undesirable, please consider all of these things when breeding or we could lose our wonderful breed type to a generic black & tan dog.

This dog presented slightly more of a stylish stature than I would normally go for, he had enough bone, muscle and substance for the weight carrying hunter that I was looking for, his drive and soundness won him the class today, head, not strong but masculine with lovely proportions & plenty of work, dark eye and kind intelligent expression, strong neck into well placed shoulders, elbows well let down and under him, correct length of upper arm creating good extension going forward, complimented by an unexaggerated strong rear construction & drive, deep in brisket, ribs well back, strong loin, good topline which was held in action, in great coat with good colour, came to life on the move with slashing tail. Handled very well. Res CC
