This is the first time I have judged this variety at this level. I was very impressed with the overall quality of the exhibits. I do think that size is a problem in some of the exhibits, they are big and heavy. Coats were good and clean. Temperaments was very good. I really enjoyed my day. V. (4). 1. Sutton's, Damai Master Benedict Sh CM. B/t. Amazing to think that I judged this boy as a youngster. Carying his 9 years really well. Good head and neck. Good front. Sound movement. 2.
