My impression of the breed hasn’t changed since my last judging appointment, I still feel that rear movement is a problem with some dogs too straight through the stifle and rear movement too close, some dogs dipping into the shoulder due to this problem. I saw a few tongues showing but sometimes had to overlook this if other qualities were good.

There was a problem with the noisy drain covers hidden under the carpet, which upset some of the dogs when trodden on but I did not let this affect my decisions as it was not hard to assess which dogs had dropped tails due to drains or nature.
