KEESHOND
I would like to thank the Secretary and the Committee for their invitation to judge the Keeshonds at this well organised show. Thank you to my steward Gavin Argyle for the professional smooth running of the show ring. Thank you to the exhibitors entered 51 and present on the day 35. How impressive the Keeshonds were both dogs and bitches seen today. My own Keeshond library and monitoring the golden years and present UK and Europe Keeshond is challenging and exciting for the future. I congratulate widely all Keeshond breeders that have achieved quality Keeshonds stand alone presentation. Few issues, 1, main point is the coats. I often hear commented on, Re think: the dog kingdom is widely European Keeshond owned and naturally shown. Dog Show Keeshonds pedigrees links interesting and wisdom knowledge gained. The Keeshond complete structure outlook, male 18”and female 17” UK stated heights. Some ruffs and coats are truly fitting, others perhaps formalizer from the continent. Same applies with us travelling and exhibiting overseas. A breeder is planning for the future suitable pedigree lines and top quality as ongoing foundation base. Naturally KC Standards approved requirements is the rules. I do take on board awareness points as mentioned above. I judge for heath, soundness, excellent/good performance movement statistics. I wish you all an exciting successful 2018.
