SOFT COATED WHEATEN JUDGE MANCHESTER 24

After having to call off being hospitalised from my first appointment in this breed 18 months ago, it was a pleasure (and relief) to finally undertake it on this occasion. There were a number of challenging and close decisions and placing could easily change on another day. Mouths were pretty good, with any faults being minor, eyes were invariably dark hazel but ear carriage could have been a little better on some exhibits. Movement overall was reasonable but it did sway some decisions.
