Thank you to the Committee for inviting me to judge the breed, to my very experienced stewards for ensuring everything ran smoothly and to the exhibitors for making this a most enjoyable day.

Yet again I found no bad feet and no bad mouths and no health issues to draw to the attention of The Kennel Club. There continues to be greater depth of quality in the bitches although some exhibits appeared to be a little on the small size. Pleased to see fewer exhibits short in the body compared to previous occasions I have judged. Height to length called for in the breed standard is something I like to see. Unfortunately there continues to be a lack of hard muscle tone in many exhibits.
