Thank you to the Society for the invitation to judge Shih Tzu & for their lovely welcome & hospitality on the day.

Thank you as well to my stewards Ali & Derek for your help & to the Exhibitors for their entries.

Puppy (2/2 abs)

Junior (3/1 abs)

1st Finnanger, Mrs M.
Eastfane’s Jubilee Ballet Danser

Very aptly named, this 16 month old gold & white girl presented a beautiful picture on the table. She really has the most beautiful head & expression with lovely dark eyes & correct nose placement. Very well balanced with a good top-line that she held on the move. In excellent condition she didn’t make things easy for her handler today.

Pleased to award her BOB which I'm told was the final point needed for her JW so many congratulations.

2nd Shulver, Miss M.
Shidizzle Quartzite Star of Crimsonleash

A handsome gold & white boy of 13 months. He has a good head & correct nose placement with lovely dark eyes. Good top-line & very well bodied he moved confidently around the ring showing full pads. Very well handled. Unlucky to meet the winner today.
