Pugs are always a delight to judge as they have such great temperaments. Plenty of quality here today – thank you all. It was a little too warm for some of them and on another day and in different conditions places might well have changed. In the circumstances, I tried to keep movement to a minimum. I had two great stewards, Calum and Rob who made my job very easy.
