CAIRN JUDGE CRUFTS 17

Cairn Terriers

It was a great honour to judge my breed at Crufts. I starts showing Cairns in my late 20s, then judging Crufts was just a dream, now it’s a treasured memory.

My thanks to my amazing stewards, they were so organised, making my day run very smoothly. Most of all thank you to the exhibitors from home & abroad, without them there would be no Crufts.

In general I was very pleased with my entry. A few level bites, some presentation left a lot to be desired, a few needed a good bath.

I was delighted with my top winners. The BOB looking great in the group, moving effortlessly around the ring, showing immaculate outline, I was so proud!
