London and Home Counties Championship Show:
Joey wins Limit at the age of six! Judge was Mr Andrew Brace, who writes, ‘Golden brindle
and white whose conformation, balance, condition and muscle tone really impressed as he is
clean, dry and everything flows with no humps or bumps, and his movement is as powerful and
effortless as one would expect. Very well handled to emphasise his many virtues, he could
have pressed harder in the challenge but his head details don’t quite match his body qualities
as the skull and muzzle could be better balanced and his nose have a shade more tilt.
Even so on overall merit he won this good class well.’
Thank you to Mr Brace for a fair but excellent write up.
