My thanks to Lucie and the Dutch Obedience Society for the invitation to judge. We were well looked after by Birgit and Gerrit van de Kamp who made us very welcome and we had an enjoyable weekend. The show was held outside with very spacious rings. There is always a very good atmosphere at the shows. All the competitors appear to enjoy the day and working their dogs. My thanks also to my stewards Vincent and Timoty for class A and Ann Marie and Davy for Novice, you all did an excellent job and kept everything in order.
NOVICE
1ST KAREN SELHORST with DYNA v.h. VOLGERLAND Duitse Herder. A very good round with few errors heel on lead. Not quite so confidant Heel free, even so very neat work. Very well done and congratulations on your win.
2ND MARIANNE van de STER with AMAZING YODA OF ALBION'S MARCH Border Collie. Another good round, only minor errors in heel on lead, but a little loose on turns, heel free. Good recall and retrieve. Well done.
3RD ROSE DEWULF with BEKKIS YOURS FAITHFULLY Border Collie. A very keen dog worked well, but was a little loose on turns and tended to lose position on turns. Had a clear recall and retrieve. Well Done.
4TH MARTINE VERHOEVEN with FOUZYWOUZY FROM IMKES FRIENDS Border Collie. A little loose at times especially on turns. With crooked presents being the only error on both recall and retrieve.
5TH YOLANDE HARTMAN with BOUNCER Kooikerhondje Had a tendency to drift especially on turns. Also anticipated the call up on the recall.
6TH YOLANDE HARTMAN with ODESSA JITSKE v. WILSTEMAR Kooikerhondje. Having two dogs in the line can’t be bad. Heel on lead was good but also had a tendency to drift on turn’s heel free.
7th ANGELINE WAYOP BEEKINK with FLOW Border Collie. Had a tendency to drift on turns and lose position in heelwork. Good retrieve.
CLASS A
1ST JENKE LABOTS with JOYFUL STEPPING v. BENVENIDA’S JOY Border Collie
Very good heel work, just dropping slightly on turns. Good recall and retrieve. Congratulations on your win.
2ND TAMARA van de WAGEN with JESSY Mecheise Herder. Again good heelwork, just a little loose on some turns. Very good A recall. Well done.
3RD ANNEKE HOLLEMANS with QUEBEY’S BOY TWICE VAN BENVENIDA’S JOY Border Collie. A little loose at times and had a tendency to drop back in heel work. Good recall and retrieve.
4TH JOSE FLIERMAN with NICE OF YOU TO COMEBYE BE CLEVER Border Collie An extra command in heel work and a bit of a messy scent put you further down the line up today. Had a clear A recall.
5TH ROSE DEWULF with BEKKIS YOURS FAITHFULLY Border Collie His keenness really showed up in this class, a little eratic in heel work loosing position on turns.
6TH HENK EEKMAN with BRITT DARA VAN’T OLDE SALLAND Oudduitse Herdershond
Needs a little tightening up on heel work especially on left turns.
7TH YOLANDE HARTMAN with ODESSA JITSKE v WILSTEMAR Kooikerhondje Had a tendency to drift especially on turns.
