2014 EASTER CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW
20 April 2014
JUDGE: MR CHARLES KERFOOT (WA)
It was a pleasing experience for me to judge the Hungarian Vizsla Club show. The show was very well organised, everything went like clockwork. The atmosphere was great, friendly and easy going. My ring steward Graham was great.
The exhibitors were exceptionally pleasant too, always congratulating each other on their wins and the quality of the dogs that I judged was very good.
