SKYE JUDGE SCOTTISH BREEDS 15

Skye Terriers

Thanks go to the committee for the opportunity to judge at this prestigious show. I enjoyed the day & was delighted with the entry. The future is looking very good for the breed, each class placement was a difficult decision, especially in the Puppy & Junior classes.

Overall, temperaments were excellent, the structure of each dog was sound, the majority fitted the Standard exactly. Thanks go to the exhibitors for presenting clean & lovely Skyes.
