Results and Critique
A well laid out and organised show that was a pleasure to be part of. A pleasant atmosphere prevailed and I thank the Officers and Committee for their kind hospitality and exhibitors for their sportsmanship and support for the winners in the form of applause in every class. Such a lovely breed and when it portrays correct breed type and balance is so handsome. Naturally type varied but excellent specimens were present and I had no difficulty finding my placings.
Temperaments were excellent, all present were healthy and shown in good condition apart from a couple that carried excessive weight or lacked substance. I thought several had bold round eyes, upright shoulders and wide fronts.
Movement was pretty good although some converged excessively in front or were rather narrow behind. These are just my observations but the overriding point is that this breed is healthy and that is great.
