My thanks to the exhibitors for a quality entry & to the experienced stewards who
kept everything in order.
I would have liked more time to judge. Perhaps in future judges will have a limit of
100 or so dogs.
Almost without exception temperaments were good. Exhibits had good muscletone
very few had coat problems, several lost higher placings as feet were not tight & well
padded.A carriage dog should be capable of hours of roadwork.
The main winners were, in my opinion, examples of what to aim for. Placings in higher
classes could easily change.
Thank you for a memorable day
