WELSH JUDGE CRUFTS 09

Welsh Terriers

It is a great honour & privilege to judge one's breed at Crufts & I would like to thank all the exhibitors who showed under me & took my decision with sporting acceptance.
The presentation & handling were of such high standard that it was a pleasure to judge the dogs. Bitches were the strongest & the quality of the CC line-up was high.
