I would firstly like to thank the Committee of the Manchu Shih Tzu Society for offering me this appointment. I would also like to thank my Steward on the day Sharon, for her assistance in ensuring the smooth running of the ring and finally I would like to thank the exhibitors who entered under me, some of whom travelled very long distances, and for the sporting way they accepted my decisions. There still appears to be a considerable variance in the size and type of some exhibits and, in some, narrow fronts and chests were also in evidence, all of which detracts from the breed type we are looking for. However, overall, I was pleased with my line ups in the dogs and bitches and was delighted with my main winners.

I would like to thank the committee of the Shih Tzu Club for giving me the honour of awarding my first set of challenge certificates for the founding breed club at their Championship Show. I have taken some time to get to this point in my judging career. I started exhibiting in this breed, along with my wife Tracey, in 2002 and judged my first Shih Tzu in 2006. Sixteen years later, after passing all the necessary assessments and judging the required number of dogs, I was delighted to be able to award my first set of Challenge Certificates. As the saying goes, “there is no substitute for experience” and I sincerely believe that in taking this approach, all the experience I have gained over the previous 20 years, in terms of exhibiting, breeding and judging this wonderful breed, has stood me in good stead to get to this day to complete my first Championship Show appointment. I would also like to thank my steward Hilary Norbury for her assistance on the day and finally, the exhibitors for the wonderful entry and for the sporting manner in which they accepted my decisions. I do not intend on giving a long preamble on the dogs I judged, but I wouId say that I found a considerable variance in size amongst the exhibits, some with not so level toplines and some with small or almond shaped eyes, which spoils the typical shih tzu expression we are looking for. Overall however, I was pleased with my line ups and delighted with my main winners.
