Scottish Dobermann Club (UK) Champ Show Results

Scottish Dobermann Club Championship Show
Saturday 23rd August 2008

I would like to thank the Scottish Dobermann Club for their hospitality and the opportunity to judge their show. I was looking for a balanced elegant compact bitch and was pleased to see my final line up just about reflected that. We still have a problem with straight shoulders. Temperaments were sound, and some of the handling needs to improve.
