Bath Championship Show
31/07/2021
I was thrilled to be asked to judge this show at Bath and finally be able to do so, I had to turn them down twice due to pior engagements. I would like to thank my very good steward and the spoting exhibitiors.
This was a quality entry of Irish with many beautiful dogs to choose from.
I would like to note that I found to many high tail carriages, breeders need to watch this before it becomes a serious problem also I found a number of bad mouths.
I am very critical about presentation for dogs being shown, to many were untidy, not trimmed well and some were even dirty, I think people should look at the class winners in respect to presentation as they were beautifully trimmed, gleaming coats and turned out to perfection.
