Judge's Critique

Thank you to all the Committee, my stewards,Nigel and Helen and exhibitors who made

this a loveley day. Weather was kind enabling us to be outdoors. Far more preferable,

the dogs always enjoy it more. Not so much the exhibitors as there was a chill wind

despite the sunshine.

Baby Puppy Dog: MR & MRS MIDDLETON Bowerhinton Belvedere Gold at Graythor -

What a charming youngster. 4 mth 'floofball' who was not phased by her surroundings

at all. Good length of bone and movement. Looks to have everything needed to be a

future star. Will enjoy seeing his career progress.
