NATIONAL WORKING AND PASTORAL - 2021
Judge :-
Dawn Cochrane
Firstly I would like to thank the committee for inviting me to judge and
award my first set of CC’s in PMD’s. Also thanks to all exhibitors who
entered and accepted my decisions with sportsmanlike behaviour, the friendly
atmosphere around the ring in this breed is second to none, and a credit to
the dog show world. Lastly, a big thank you to my two stewards who kept the
ring moving in the intense heat. A day I will treasure forever, thank you.
All exhibits had correct dentition, double dew claws and were well up on
height for the breed standard. I was very pleased with my final line-up, a
credit to the breed.
