GORDON SETTER ASSOCIATION CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW

Judge - Helen Upton

Something for all three handlers to remember for the future competitions, practice straight lines and remember to watch where the judge is at all times. You should never be between the judge¹s view and your dog at any time.

6-11 years (1)

1 Georgie Dixon, 11. Confident and well-presented handler handled this breed with ease. Listened to instructions and executed them well. Encouraged dog nicely and got the most out her. Won best junior handler for confidence and experience. BJH.

12-16 years (2)

1 Matthew Metcalfe, 13. Again a well presented handler. Handled his dog very well and professionally. Encouraged his dog and corrected himself on any mistakes that he occurred.

2 Emily Mawer, 13. Less experienced and confident handler than 1st. Although lacking in confidence still managed to handle her dog with encouragement and execute instructions given. Needs to watch where the judge is in future, although did start to pick this concept up in latter stages of the class. Very well done.
