Thank you very much for the super entry , it was an honour and a privilege to have such an amazing entry waiting .. Thank you to my Steward of the day Mrs Wendy Starkey ,also to the Great Joint for the invitation.

Temperaments were good ,as was mouths, I found some flanged rib cages , also the lack of pro sternum . But the breed certainly looks in good order, the minor puppy and puppy classes in both sexes were hot classes ,this I feel bodes really well for the future of the breed.
