I would like to thank the exhibitors for an excellent entry and the society for inviting me. On the plus side temperaments were excellent, tail carriages better than I expected, fronts were on the whole good only a few loose elbows, presentation was excellent. On the down side were eyes, I found quite a lot showing white, a fault we had improved on, that has crept back and almond shaped eyes giving totally the wrong expression for the breed. A level topline is becoming hard to find and mouths seem to have deteriorated with a lot too far undershot and quite a few with jumbled teeth. Some coats appeared dry and lifeless, this could be today’s way of feeding (one of my hobby horses) or the result of all the preparations used on them on the day. The Standard says freshly bathed and brushed down to the skin. The DCC winner Ch. Tameron Mr XS is to my mind one of the greats of the breed, shown in excellent coat and hard muscled condition. The BCC Debeaux Cause I Can was the find of the day, she could have been bred and shown by some of the top breeders of the past, so feminine and so Shih Tzu. Her owners are new to the breed and I do hope they study the pedigree and take advice from the breeders of her parents when it comes to mating her.
