Thank you to The Birmingham Dog Show Society for inviting me to judge at the National Dog Show, my very first championship show awarding CC’s. I had a lovely day and was very well looked after by the committee and my lovely ring stewards at this well run show. I should have judged it last year but due to covid it was put back a year. Thank you also to all the exhibitors that entered and excepted my decisions sportingly.

1st Vorderstrasse’s Ch Arrowbien Dream Machine
This well broken Blenheim caught my eye as soon as he entered the ring. His masculine but gentle expression is just what I was looking for. Large dark eyes and correct top of head and ear set. He has a slightly arched neck of the right length leading to well laid back shoulders. He has well turned stifles and moves with drive keeping a level topline moving and standing. Very good spring of rib and correct tail set and carriage. He has great ring presence and was turned out to perfection. Couldn’t deny him top honours today. Both myself and my co judge loved both our top winners who were bred by the same kennel, so we decided to let the referee decide. Today the Bitch was BOB but it was a very close call. CC
2nd Kilcoyne’s Ch Granasil Bourbon
What can I say that hasn’t already been said about this beautiful example of our breed. One I have watched and admired from the ringside having met him as a baby while caravaning! Rich Ruby presenting a lovely overall outline and shape. His handsome masculine head has a lovely soft expression with large dark round eyes and excellent pigment. Moved with style and drive as expected with his good angulation back and front. A very worthy Champion.
