Nidderdale
Show Feature
Phew!
What a show, always a good one but better still this year,
great sponsors. Beautiful sunny weather. Gorgeous location
in Beverley Park at Pateley Bridge. Lovely sized well mown
rings. Crowds all day long, lots of exhibitors enjoying the
day out at this, their favourite show. Our Dogs chose this
show as one of its “Featured Events” and I can see
why! Huge entry of almost a thousand from 176 classes. Quality
dogs throughout, who are the people that continually expound
that dogs at Open shows are not of sufficient quality? Rubbish!

JUDGES’ REPORTS Firstly
my sincere apologies to all exhibitors for the shortness of
my report, due to a very quick and unexpected close bereavement
after returning from Nidderdale. I deemed it a great honour
to be asked to judge Best in Show as such a wonderful and
idyllic venue, and for such a super entry including the Steers
who thought they would also like my opinion. The very hardworking
officers and committee made sure that everything ran very
efficiently and greatly added to the pleasure for me. Thank
you. My BIS. was the Shar-Pei. Superb example of the breed
in all departments. Head that fits. the standard to perfection.
Good solid body in hard muscular condition. Moved with purpose
and control, at one with the handler. Could not deny this
one Best in Show. A privilege to judge. Not surprised to hear
his Third BIS in the last month. Res Best in Show was the
Pug, who even after a long day still pushed to the limit.
A super dog, should do much winning. Best Puppy in Show was
the Belgium Shepherd. Expression
and personality demanded attention. Correct body, good tail.
Right Pug movement front and back. One I would love to own.
Judged fairly, must have a bright future. Was delighted to
award her BAV TOY and RBIS. V STAKES was Gullen’s, Hutzpah
Honeysuckle. Was a little disappointed in the dentition cleanness
of many of the otherwise super veterans. A little time taken
with the teeth now saves a lot of trouble later in life, and
adds to the well kept condition of the dog. My Best Veteran
I find is mother to my Res Best in Show. A quality bitch of
8 years. Not surprised of the quality she produced. Good head,
nicely placed shoulders. Still with good front and rear end.
Good tail. Moved well and well bodied. AV BRACE. The most
beautiful Brace class I have seen for a long time. I wish
I could have placed them all first, and I really had to split
hairs. 1. Two litter brothers, Pyrenean Mountain Dogs, that
had it together. Looking and moving as if they joined at the
hip with the handler. Poetry in motion.
LABRADOR. This was the best entry of Labradors numerically
and quality I’ve seen at an Open Show for a while. It
was a pleasure to judge this quality in a lovely country on
