Judge Gillian Blair (Bellflows)

I thoroughly enjoyed my day judging some of the toy classes at this lovely show. My sincere thanks go to the Officers and Committee for the kindness and hospitality that was extended to me during my visit. My excellent Steward did a marvellous job and many thanks to the exhibitors who entered under me.

1.Smith Chibull Micky Mouse At Lozek I just loved this 3 and half yr old blue fawn boy as soon as he came into the ring. He had a well-balanced body with good angulation front & rear. Correct feet, good tail set & carried up over the back in correct sickle form at all times. Sound & free moving with excellent ring presence. Lovely shape and size with good substance to body. BOB

2. Hollister Hollichi Ren’s Legacy 3 yr blue fawn sable girl with a good apple dome head with an ok ear set. Appeals for overall size, bone and balance with well laid shoulder. Held a nice top line and moved around the ring well but very reluctant to use her tail and carried down a lot of the time. It was rather warm so this may not of helped .
