Yorkshire Collie Club Championship Show
3 rd September 2023
First I would like to thank the committee for giving me the opportunity to judge and award CC’s for the first time. I really enjoyed my day and had a mostly good to very good examples of the Breed to go over. I have only been able to get to 6 Collie Shows in the last 3 years and was very pleased to see that in general the health of the collies has improved, especially in regard to movement and a reduction in the amount of cow hocks.
