Many thanks to the Officers and the committee for kindly inviting me to Judge at this show.
I thought the breed generally especialy in the early classes was of a very high standard.
Head shapes were very good, I only had one bad bite although some teeth could have been larger.
Eyes generally were very good. I would have preferred to see some smaller ears.
Body shapes were very good although a tad long. Movement was generally good going but I was a little
dissapionted with the front movement; ie small strides & too much knee action.
