1st Ch. Hashanah Lock Stock N' Barrel Mrs G M Gilkes

I have not judged the breed for a long time., and unfortunately the breed has changed, and not all for the best. There were a lot of white in eyes and flat tails, also a lot of nervous dogs which need more handling and ringcraft training - for both dogs and handlers. On sitting and watching the dogs being judged, I though afterwards that the bitches were much stronger.
