Firstly, I would like to thank Bournemouth Canine Association for inviting me to judge their Championship Show. A huge thank you to my wonderful Ring Stewards, Trish and Bill, a vital part of the judging process keeping everything moving along smoothly. They were excellent and really helped to make it a pleasant day. I would like to thank all exhibitors that still attended defying the scorching heat. Also thank you to those who entered but didn’t come along, I completely understand. Overall despite a low entry (I’m afraid typical of the times) I am pleased to say I found some top drawer exhibits. I had not judged for 6 years but some of my comments from my last appointment still apply. Too many narrow chests, lack of body and muscle tone, more exercise needed! Temperaments were superb. Movement was good throughout, with some EXCEPTIONAL. When awarding Best of Breed I considered it a great privilege to be faced with two really lovely TOP DRAWER exhibits.

I would like to thank Windsor Canine Society for inviting me to judge our lovely breed for the second time. A huge thank you to my two stewards for keeping my ring running so smoothly. It was a lovely day weather wise and atmosphere wise.Both my challenge line ups would do ANY championship proud. My impression of the breed has positives and negatives, on the positive side temperaments were excellent, top class presentation throughout. Pleased to say no white of eye evident but did find some small eyes creeping in, this does not give the true Shih Tzu expression. Top lines were on the whole level. Both these points have improved greatly since my last judging appointment. On the negative side, construction and movement are still problematic. I found narrow chests, slab sides, lack of body and muscle tone in quite a few exhibits. Lack of forward reach and pitter patter back action instead of the desired kick back and show of full pad. Sadly such a desire for profuse coats is taking preference over construction and movement. I found a great variation in size in todays exhibits.

________________________________________ Many thanks to my very able stewards Brenda and Malcolm. Both my challenge line-ups pleased me greatly. My worrying observations of our gorgeous breed at present is lack of ribcage, very narrow chests and rising top lines. Eyes worried me greatly. A lot of very small and some almost almond shape giving a totally wrong expression. Not the large expressive eyes that become our lovely breed. I found quite a lot of white of eye (as stated in our breed standard Undesirable). I also found a lot of light brown eyes. All these problems should be strongly considered in our future breeding programmes. All my class winners pleased me greatly. Presentation was excellent but we must not be blinded by these profuse coats often hiding poor construction.

A good venue, a lovely summers day, a high good quality entry and extremely sporting exhibitors. What more could one ask for? I was very fortunate I got the whole package. Plus points in our breed at the present time are top lines are much leveller than the first time I judged. Dentition is taking a real turn for the better, many exhibits with excellent mouths. Presentation is excellent, really first class. Minus points are tails, we seem to have gone a stage further than undesirable flat tails, We now have quite a few young exhibits with tails that look excellent standing but once on the move they seem to flag off the side of the dog in a really loose manner, this really spoils the overall look of the exhibit. Many otherwise very nice exhibits lost top honours due to this fault. Still a lot of muscle tone. This was very obvious in a great deal of rear action. I must say I was delighted with both Challenge Certificate line ups
