Norfolk Terrier Club of Great Britain (Open Show)
At Bugbrooke Sports & Community Centre
On 22nd April 2017
Judge Bob Blackley
It was an honour to Judge a prestigious Club Show, I would like to thank the Officers and Committee for inviting me, also a big thank you to all the exhibitors, my entry was fantastic full of quality, I’m sorry but some really good dogs were not in the top honours today. I thought the bitches in general were of better quality than the dogs which is good for the breed, and in the dogs I found more level bites than in the bitches, I also noticed some weak pasterns which spoilt the balance and outline, but in general they were good.
The best Junior Handler was ISOBELL WEST, very professional and kept her exhibit well under control, and knew about the breed.
