BORDER BATH 22 Judge: Mrs J Willetts BORDER JUDGE BATH 22 Dogs entered: 89 Entries: 101. I would like to thank Bath Canine Society Committee for my invitation to judge at their show. I would also like to thank my steward as she was on her own, and did an excellent job of running the ring and dogs smoothly. I’d also like to thank all the exhibitors who entered, I had a very enjoyable day going over each of the dogs. On the whole most of the dogs were in good condition. Most dogs presented had good pelts and coats, however there were a few with thin pelts. There were a few long tails and some large ears. The movement on the whole was sound. VD (1) 1 Jackson’s Clipstone Starshine. Stood alone but was a worthy winner. Typical outline, good head and expression. Good bones with neat feet. Sound on the move and held top line and tail set when stood and moving. In good condition, with correct coat and pelt. Best Veteran. MPD (4,1) 1 Matthews’ Tojamatt Nightwatchman. Very smart, and good colour (blue and tan) pleasing head and expression. Nice reach of neck, good shoulders and length of rib. Correct coat and pelt. Moved round the ring with drive and kept his top line on the move. Best puppy dog. 2 Ramus’ Tulawyn Garretson by Onthill. Nice size, good head and expression. Good neck and shoulders, with correct coat and pelt. Moved well. 3: Greenway’s Foxchapel Perfect Day with Foxcourt. PD (3,1) 1: Matthews Tojamatt Nightwatchman 2: Stevens’ Cobstoneway Stand By Me. Nice size with a good head and expression. Good top line and tail set moved well. Not as harsh in coat as the winner. JD (2,1) 1 Goddard’s Awbrooksky Never Back Down JW. Stood alone in class, but he never stopped showing. Excellent head and expression. Good neck going into well laid shoulders and length of rib. In good condition, with correct harsh coat and thick pelt. Moved round the ring with drive, keeping his outline and tail set on the move. For the challenge he came in the ring like he owned it. DCC and BOB. YD (3) 1 Davies’ Gwynedd Carreg Glas of Foxchapel. Nice size, harsh coat with good pelt. Good head, nice expression.
