Cocker Spaniel Club of Slovakia

Cocker Spaniel Club of Slovakia
20th May 2018

 

Judging this Club Show was a wonderful experience and
I have to thank Alex and Eva Felszeghy for looking after me during my stay in Bratislava.
On the day, the Stewards were excellent and thank goodness they spoke English !
Glorious weather, excellent dogs of good type, presented in marvellous coat and hard, well muscled, condition -
a credit to their owners who accepted my decisions and placings in good spirit.

ex Fuzburki Rambling Rose
winner of Black Veteran
this dog is 14 years old -
he is amazing ! the only hint of his age was his white
face and a missing tooth: shown in excellent coat and hard
condition, he has all the qualities and construction of a top class dog and
moved with the enthusiasm of a four year old !

...my final Best in Show winning the Champion class....
I was delighted to find this black and tan cocker of excellent type, and so early in the day -
I could not find anything any to beat her; from her head to tail, she is compact, balanced and
well boned; with good angulation ; well ribbed and deep chested; with firm,
muscled quarters; sound, exhuberant movement with excellent presentation to complete the picture.
