"Thank you to the Committee of LKA for the hospitality and to my excellent steward. There was a great atmosphere with generous applause for the winners. I was very pleased with my principal winners.

I feel that bitches are lacking height - the standard calls for 26 inches. Ears are becoming too long and tails too short. On the plus side, eyes are tighter and better fitting, but some have eyes so round, small and deep set that it is difficult to see their colour. Temperaments were super."
