To be invited to judge your lovely breed was a special honour for me and I was thrilled to accept. The atmosphere at your shows is always friendly and warming or was this the delicious home-made lunch! Members and exhibitors all accepted my placing sportingly. I hope everyone enjoyed there day as much as I did and to top my day I was given a lovely towel with my “Kaytian” affix. I found all mouths to be excellent even in veterans although some coats were very big which could be detrimental if they should fall from the barge into the water.

Plenty of strong bone to pleasing tight feet. Well bodied and nicely sprung ribs, short loin sound tail set carried tightly curled over back with distinctive black tip.
