Minehead & District Canine Society Open Show 14 November 2010
Judge: Mr M Shortman (Bridgefarm)
Overall the Cockers were generally well presented with a few exceptions and this cost them their placings. Movement was, in some cases difficult to assess as the dogs were strung up on their leads with their front feet barely touching the floor. My class winners were all worthy of their placings and I was impressed with both my BOB and BP. G (3)1 Green & Brain’s Rothmia Queen Sophia At Meloneras, BOB, G4.
