WINDSOR CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW 30-06-22

Judge - Stuart Keay

Many thanks to all the exhibitors for their entry. From my point of view we have a problem with the breed, the Breed Standard states: Size. Ideal height dogs 25cm at the shoulder. We are getting much bigger than this and we need to bring the size down. Also I found several with very long couple. The Apso should be compact, ribs reaching well back and short coupled. Not short in rib and long in couple.
