South East Pyrenean Mountain Dog Club Championship Show. 5 April 2015.

Judge    Jeff Luscott

 

Thank you to the Committee for the Invitation to judge at their club show, I thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality, the atmosphere and the quality of the dogs, the sporting way the exhibitors accepted the decisions and the enjoyable time in the ring we had. Unfortunately the large outside ring, which was great for the dogs, had longer grass than some of the handlers could cope with, so not quite getting the best performance out of their exhibits. I had some very close and interesting decisions to make amongst the classes and line ups, with the Puppy dog taking all before him today with an excellent performance from him and his handler, especially on the move, covering the ground with his powerful stride, balance of outline and the alert circular tail set required when moving. This young star should have a great future.
