Sunday 18th May 2025

Thank you to the committee for the invitation to judge at your show! The rings were a brilliant size and I had lots of quality dogs to choose from. The weather was rather hot so that did unfortunately affect placings of dogs as they were affected by the heat. Exhibitors throughout all breeds, groups and stakes were all very sporting which is always lovely to see as this is what keeps our sport alive!
