Folkestone Hythe & DCS

4th March 2007

Judge: Jane Ferguson

Junior Handling

6-11years

1. Page Allen. i have watched this young lady since she first started to compete and she just gets better and better. Easy winner here. Sympathetic and composed, working with a difficult dog, she was he only one to do her patterns correctly. Just lost out of Jodi for BKH as she got her anatomy question wrong.

2. Emma Coyle. Quiet handler. Never broke the golden rule and her triangle was good. However she did not follow the direction of my feet when doing her up and down.

3. Sky Smith

12-16 years

Only one (my winner) knew how to do a triangle correctly when I positioned in the corner of the ring. There were lots of wavy lines and crooked final presents. Be careful to look at the position of the judge's feet at all times. Beward of flapping leads and try not to break the golden rule.

1. Jodi Allen. Jodi shone in this class, she didn't out a foot wrong. She was always aware of my position at all times and was the only one to do her triangle correctly. Did really well in the challenge with a dog she had just met. BJH.

2. Naomi Williamson. Made a nice picture standing, and shadowed well/ Needs to practise her patterns and final present.

3. Adam Bartlett
