Birmingham National Championship Show 2021

My thanks to the committee for inviting me to judge at this friendly well organized show and to the exhibitors for your large quality entry. Your dogs were a credit to you all, clean and well presented, but please do include your dog’s teeth during the preparation before a show. Some of them really did need the application of a tooth brush.
