South Western Toy Dog Club Open Show 2017

19 March 2017
Papillon Judge: Melanie Mann (Melangel)

Best of Breed: Cox’s TRICIANBRI TUPPENCE A KISS JW
Best Puppy: Hazel’s FEORLIG IT MUST’VE BEEN LOVE

Many thanks for the invitation to judge the South Western Toy Club, the hospitality of the committee and the excellent job done by my 2 stewards. A great entry of 30 Papillons with only 3 absentees. A range of sizes and types but on the whole temperaments were excellent though a few were overawed by the noise. I was looking for a fine- boned, dainty, elegant Papillon and I felt my 3 main winners fitted the bill!

1st Hazel’s FEORLIG IT MUST’VE BEEN LOVE Dainty 7month r/s/w. Sweetest of heads with well defined stop & large mobile ears. Level topline and correctly set tail arched over back, correct hare-like feet. Lively and alert and so at one with his handler. Moved well. I felt more body would complete the picture though I’m sure this will come as he matures. BEST PUPPY
