MANCHESTER JUDGE LEEDS 12

Manchester Terriers

I enjoyed the Manchester Terriers, it was a splendid entry. I purposefully have not watched the breed since accepting the invitation to judge here so almost all the dogs were new to me. I congratulate breeders for the work they have done on the breed. Temperaments were excellent with only one puppy being a little unsettled on the table – she was quickly won round with a sausage! All the exhibits were in good coat & body condition.
