I really enjoyed my days judging. The overall quality was there, and it is a credit to many, that presentation was 1st class in the majority of cases. At times it was a most difficult decision when awarding places, due to the quality and quantity found in classes. I must commend the breeders and owners for producing such exhibits, a credit to you. I do believe the breed itself is in very good shape. Thank you for today. I also wish to thank my steward, Jennifer, for her excellent hard work today which I appreciated.
