WEST HIGHLAND WHITE JUDGE BIRMINGHAM NATIONAL 21

I would like to thank the Officers and Committee for inviting me to judge at their prestigious show. My thanks also go to my two stewards for their attentiveness and professionalism on the day. Not forgetting the exhibitors for their entries.
Just a note to those who do not clean their dog`s teeth. Please take the time to do this and prevent future health problems for your dogs. I found a couple to be extremely dirty which is unacceptable at any level.
