East of England Championship Show 2012

Judge(s): MR F COSME

It was unfortunate that there was a breed Championship show on the same day and the weather did not help the entry. The Society did an excellent job in accommodating all the breeds into a dry space,our ring was small but we made the best of it. My two stewards Gail Hussey and Marjorie Coar deserve a medal for their weekends work.

JD(3, 2) 1 Cook's Res Best Dog, Ryecombe Duncan Disorderly At Kimbru. 12 months sable with a promising shaped head. Good shaped eyes and colour, and pigment. Uses ears well. Has a good front. Is well angulated both ends. Moved well. Excellent temperament.

PGD(2, 1) 1, BD &BOB, Hill's Devern Denman. Quality 19 months tricolour. Well shaped head, eye, colour, shape and pigment. Has well set ears.

OB(2, 1) 1 and BB, Robinson's Southcombe Summer Special At Dawcher. 13 months feminine sable. With a promising head maturing nicely. Very outgoing with excellent temperament.
