My thanks to the society for inviting me to judge, to the
exhibitors for their entries and my 2 stewards for an efficiently run day. But
oh dear what is happening to our lovely breed. Where have all the lovely big
round dark eyes that fill the face and dare you to ignore them gone? The
majority of eyes today are small and do not fill the socket, so instead of the
lovely warm soft expression you get one that just stares at you, leaving you
cold. To clarify that I do not mean big bulging eyes that are open to injury,
but the large round dark brown eye that is so much a feature of this breed. Also
sadly lacking is the barrel rib cage and short legs that give the required "Ship
in full sail" movement as the rear legs drive the dog round the ring, showing a
full pad. The first 3 bitch classes gave me some hope that all is not lost, yet,
but with so few kennels breeding to the correct type for the Standard these
special breed qualities are in danger of disappearing and once gone, how do we
get them back? Mouths are a mixture, some too undershot and 2 with 4 teeth and 2
gaps, giving the impression that teeth have been lost. I did not in the main
penalize for mouths as I felt the eyes and construction to be of more
importance.
