Professional Handlers Judging Whilst Still Plying Their Trade
I am pleased to be given the honour to judge this prestigious Championship Show for the first time awarding CC’s in Irish Terriers. I wish to thank all the exhibitors for giving me the opportunity to judge their dogs, in general the dogs and bitches were of sound construction, tails and tailset in general were good, only a couple of exhibits with tight canines otherwise mouths were good, there were no problems with pads, some exhibits maybe a little oversized according to the Breed Standard, but would hope that breeders will be addressing this problem in their breeding program.
