The Labrador Retriever Club 77TH Breed Championship Show Pure Agility, Tamworth on Sunday July 18th 2021 Judges: Margaret Brown (Dogs) and Rich Stafford (Bitches) The results of the top honours are as follows: Best in Show Lambert’s Ch Mattand Exodus Reserve Best in Show O’Neil Ramsayville Tali JW DOGS I was delighted to be given the opportunity of judging at The Labrador Retriever Club and would like to thank the Committee for their kind invitation and to my capable stewards for keeping me in check. Thank you to everyone who braved the incredible heat and stayed over for the second days’ judging. I am afraid if I had shown dogs on Saturday and knew it was going to be even hotter on Sunday, I would have gone home. Therefore, my sincere thanks to everyone who stayed and showed their dogs to me. It was difficult to ask the dogs to move more than was necessary as it was so very hot. Some poor dogs were really suffering. My apologies to anyone who felt I should have moved them more. I never have preconceived ideas before I go into the ring. I simply judged as I saw the dogs on the day.
