Single breed open
show 14th March 2009
Judge: Helen Pearson
I would like to thank the officers and
committee of the Midland Cairn Terrier Club for giving me the opportunity to
judge this show. As always there was a
happy, relaxed atmosphere, and I thoroughly enjoyed my day.
Sincere thanks should also go to all the
exhibitors who gave me a good entry and allowed me to judge their dogs. All temperaments were excellent and overall
quality was high. Some classes presented me with some difficult decisions. Thank you.
