Mrs T COX

Judging: Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Toy Group

I haven't judge for 5yrs.  So you can imagine I was very excited and honoured to be asked to judge this show,  having such fond memories here exhibiting and caravanning with family and friends.  Despite all the rain we had had, on the day of the show the sun came out.  It was just a shame we couldn't have shown outside on such a lovely day.

 I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who took the time to enter and show their lovely dogs to me, especially with the cost of living soaring.   I understand every penny counts, so I'm very grateful.
