3rd Cairn’s Lamarg Gucci I see is another by Victor v Roveline I noticed when writing this report what an influential sire he is, and another Ch Korifey iz Zoosfery. Of course, one must not forget the bitches in all this, but I found this interesting.

My thanks to my stewards, and having a large ring, did mean one can really see the dogs move. There was a very good atmosphere, & I did enjoy judging one of my favourite breeds.
