ABB Championship Show

5th September 1999

Judge's Report by Mrs Carol Hutchinson

I would like to thank the committee for the judging appointment.  I had a very enjoyable day.  I would like to make a couple of comments.  I was alarmed by the number of bad mouths, it was very alarming in the dog hounds. Heads also need watching.  Where have all the long heads gone?  I was pleased with my principal winners, but a lot of quality is going.  We really have to look at our breeding and try to put it right before it's too late, or maybe it is!
