WAY TO GO BLUE AND PEARL!
This is "Blue's" Sixth Best of Breed at Crufts,
what a huge accomplishment and his 50th Best of Breed.
Countess Huntingdon writes -
"It was a truly great honour to be
judging at Crufts. The first Australian Cattle Dog walked into my
life in Australia in January 1983 and I would never dreamt I would be
standing judging a breed I have grown to love so much many years later.
The dogs presented to me were almost without exception in good hard
condition as a working dog should be and apart from one or two showed
themselves with enthusiasm which is not always easy for a breed who
would rather be living the life on a property a million miles from
Birmingham! I would like to thank all the exhibitors for entering
their dogs under me and I must say that I felt the young bitches and
dogs gave me a real feel that we all have a great deal to look forward
to in the future...you can see variations in the different kennel lines,
they all have qualities to contribute to our breed whether it be a
strong head, movement, structure or colour. Temperaments without
exception seem to be really good even though the natural wariness of the
breed shows itself from time to time.
