Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen & Basset Fauve De Bretagne.

Miss Megan Anderson 

A bit thank you to the committee for inviting me to judge! It was lovely to get my hands on some outstanding exhibits and to judge two breeds that I love so very dearly. A big thank you to my stewards for keeping my ring running so smoothly.

Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen

Puppy (2:0)

1, Allenby RANGALI FRANKNFURTER

I have admired this pup for a while and he didn’t disappoint, lovely head, dark eye with cheeky expression, good underjaw, correct ear set and length, good length of neck into well laid shoulder, prominent front, good depth of chest, ribs carried well back, well angulated rear, excellent movement, couldn’t be denied RBD, pushed incredibly hard for top spot in the challenge, will follow closely.
