Thankyou to all the exhibitors who entered. It was a really cold day apart from the owners shivering so did a lot of the dogs which on some, affected their showing, Some would have been placed higher if it wasn't for that. First I would like to thank my stewards who did a brilliant job. Secondly I have to say was surprised on the change in the breed. To the newer exhibitors and breeders a Chin is a small dog not a tiny one. The body required is a short compact cobby body not a slimlined body with no substance. Bone should be in proportion with the body to give a complete balanced picture. A dog without the correct body shape or weight-wise affects the movement, so please watch what you breed.On the positive side I was really pleased with my final lineup which all were of similar type.
