MINIATURE SMOOTHHAIRED

 I always enjoy judging but not unusually I came away with mixed emotions. The third word in the standard is low. I know good ground clearance has become the ‘in phrase’ but in some cases the depth of brisket was less than the length of foreleg. Surely this can’t be what we want? We were always told that the bottom of the ear should not extend beyond the nose. The standard says the forward edge should touch the cheek but in several cases it was the bottom of the ear that reached the cheek. Feet were my other main concern. Hare feet to be a definite no but I found several usually with long trimmed nails. Movement was mixed, nothing specific but a lot of ifs. My final quote is ‘neck carried proudly forward’. I did wonder if there was any connection between the head being carried too high and flapping front feet. On a positive note I felt heads were good and in most cases coupling was short with well muscled loins. With the exception of nails all exhibits were presented in excellent body and condition and I did not find a single dirty or misplaced tooth. Temperament and showmanship was excellent. I felt as usual that the bitches were better overall but I was pleased with all my winners and in some of the classes some very good exhibits were unplaced.
