"My sincere thanks to Belfast Dog Show Society for my first appointment to award C.C.’s to my beloved breed. 29 top quality dogs were entered with only one absentee. My Class winners were all superb, and would easily challenge for top honours in any company.

In my 30 years involvement in the breed, the standard of grooming, presentation and handling has improved immeasurably, and was top class today.

I thoroughly enjoyed the day. A big thank you to all the Exhibitors and, of course, the dogs."
