Judge: Mrs. Mary Drewett (Judyland)

I would like to thank The Northern CKCS Society Show for their kind invitation to judge dogs. Their excellent hospitality, and thanks to the stewards for their help and kindness at their well organised show. I would also like to thank the exhibitors who entered their dogs under me; the overall quality was very good with super temperaments and presentation. I was very pleased with my first and second placings. I was very pleased with my final line up.

My co- judge Ms Helen Long and I agreed with all the principal winners. Best in show going to the dog who I learned gained the breed record on the day. Reserve best in show was the bitch gaining her championship, best puppy in show was the bitch and best veteran in show was the dog, and best vintage the dog.

Judge: Ms. Helen Long (Arroline)

I’d like to thank the Northern CKCS Society show for their generous hospitality; nothing was to much trouble even when I needed emergency sun cream. I would also like the thank the exhibitors who bought their dogs under me, without exception temperaments and presentation were good.
It was an enjoyable day filled with quality dogs. I was very pleased with my line up and I feel many of my class winners were green card worthy. It came down to the dog and it’s performance on the day. My only slight concern is that there were bitches throughout the entry with slight overbites, these should not be confused with scissor bites, something to watch when it comes to breeding. All first and second placed had correct mouths and therefore I will not mention bites in individual critiques.
My co judge Mrs Mary Drewett and I agreed on all our principle winners with Best In Show going to the Dog, who gained the breed record on the day. Reserve Best in Show the bitch, who gained her championship. Best Puppy in Show was the bitch, Best Veteran in Show the dog and Best Vintage the Dog.
