Stourbridge & District Canine Society - 27th December 2015
Thank you to the committee of Stourbridge & District Canine Society for giving me the opportunity to judge what promised to be an excellent turnout of Boxers. Unfortunately the numbers were decimated and after seeing the catalogue after I judged, I know that most of those entered were from kennels which are/or have recently been blighted by Kennel cough. I respect your decision not to attend a show until your dogs are clear of this illness and look forward to seeing you in the near future. My sole contender for BOB was PINGARYPOINT MISS DIOR who was the Junior class winner. She was a nice brindle and white, 15 month old bitch, well balanced with nice movement. She had a good, square bite with dark eyes and an evident stop. She was at obvious harmony in the ring.

Junior Handling Critiques

1st 6-11yrs & Best Overall Handler - a very alert handler who moved accordingly to the judges position. He got the very best out of his bitch and fulfilled everything that was required. During the challenge of best junior handler he didn't let his focus between his dog and the judge slip, displaying neat lines and tidy turns. He was at harmony with his dog at all times, it was easy to recognise the bond they had with each other, showing all the right signs of the making of a good handler. I had no hesitation in giving him his class and best overall junior handler

2nd 6-11yrs - a very talented handler with great handling abilities who showed her dog well in the class, she handled with great confidence and expressed her handling skills well

3rd 6-11yrs - a good handler with great abilities achieving a good placing in her class, she handled her. Dog well in the class, a very good handler with great potential

4th 6-11yrs - a good, young handler, showing her dog well, she had to work hard to get her dog performing and she achieved this with both great confidence and patience. A very promising handler in the making

1st 12-16yrs & reserve best handler - a very good handler who presented her bitch to the best of the her ability, she was alert and watcher where the judge was stood at all times. Another very competent young handler, hope you keep up the good work and continue to build your handling skills
