This was one of the friendliest shows I have judged. It was also an honour to judge this Breed Club open show where I was made really welcome and the most sporting exhibitors gave the show a great atmosphere. Thank you to the Officers and Committee for their hospitality and to my stewards for their efficient and friendly help. I was presented with some top quality dogs to judge and would like to thank the exhibitors for their entry and for sportingly accepting my decisions. I was very pleased with my final winners.
