BEST IN SHOW GUNDOG GROUP 1, 1st Junior, 1st Graduate & BOB
Had an excellent day at Hereford. Thank you very much to Mr Martin Rackett our breed judge, Miss Becky Johnson Gundog Group Judge and finally the big one BIS judge Mrs Sheila Jakeman, for thinking so highly of my Frankie.
Becky Johnson's report: Thought this dog absolutely cracking. On my first walk around he didn't immediately catch my eye, but on going over him I really appreciated his qualities. Masculine head without being overdone in any way, good reach of neck into correct lay of shoulder & return of upper arm, correctly sprung ribcage, short loin leading to strong hindquarters & correct otter tail, excellent bone with best of feet, when asked to move he was accurate fore & aft then showed a tremendous reach of stride down the long side of the ring.BIS.
