Judge : Mrs Linda Reinelt-Gebauer
This critique reflects the judge's opinion
based on what they saw on the day of the show.

I would like to thank the exhibitors, who showed their beautiful Shih-Tzu Dogs at the Shih-Tzu Club of Scotland championship show in Lanark. The quality was of a very high level, clear eyes, open nostrils, firm elbows, excellent muscled and angled hindquarters. Just a joy to see. It was, for me, a great pleasure.
