Edwinstowe & District Canine Society - Easter Premier Open Show, 18th April 2025

Many thanks to the committee for inviting me to judge at your Easter show, everyone was in good spirits and the ring was a good size. My stewards were excellent and I’d like to thank the dream team of Colin, Matt and Lauren for keeping the ring moving and looking after us all so well. It was quite noisy in the hall at times which did affect some of the more sensitive hounds but it was a good venue and nice surface for the dogs to show on. Lovely to see some of my BOB / BP’s be recognised in the Groups and Special Congratulations to my Whippet Best of Breed who went all the way to Best in Show! Well done!
