Rottweiler Show Results

I would like to thank the committee for their kind invitation to judge & to the exhibitors for my excellent entry. Overall I found a great variety in heads & was extremely disappointed in movement, especially rear with a number of dogs ‘cow hocked’ which is something that must be watched. I wish exhibitors would not constantly feed their dogs as there are times when heads cannot be assessed, also they should be careful when ‘stacking’ as what was a good dry head can suddenly become ‘wet’. Temperaments as expected were excellent. Needless to say I was thrilled to see our BOB (on referee’s decision) looking so impressive in the big ring & winning G1, many congratulations!
