I would like to thank the officers and committee for their kind invite to judge NSDTR with CC’s for the first time. Also thank you to my stewards, Jane and Bob for all their help, keeping the ring moving and efficient during the day. Of course my biggest thanks go the exhibitors who so kindly brought their lovely dogs for me judge. They were very supportive to the winners and showed great sportsmanship through out the day. The breed at shows are growing all the time in popularity year on year. I was awarding tickets in the breed for the first time so was very humbled to have such a entry, not only in numbers but in quality with some very competitive classes and some hard decisions had to be made. The breed in general is in a good place, because the classes are so competitive, you have to produce and show top quality dogs to have success in the ring, so very positive for the future. My only slight concern for the breed was the big increase since I judged them at Bournemouth in the over use of baiting. Of course a little baiting to get a dog stacked to show its best is fine by me, but their were quite a few where the dog was so obsessed with the reward it was very difficult for me to acess heads, and look at the bite, and in some cases going over the body of the dog was a challenge. I hope this improves for the future.
