Judges : Ms Jackie Sullivan and Ms Jackie Sullivan
This critique reflects the judge's opinion
based on what they saw on the day of the show.
| I would like to thank the committee for inviting me to judge, I had a wonderful day. I would also like to thank the exhibitors who gave me the wonderful entry and who travelled in that awful weather. I really enjoyed my day, there were some beautiful dogs who only came away with minor placings, it was very difficult in some of the classes i.e. Postgraduate Dog, Limit Dog and Open Dog especially! Thank you all. |
