Briard Association Championship Show
20th September 2009
Judge: Mr Rodi HUBENTHAL (Norway)
"A lovely venue! To judge specialities is an honour when you are an all breed judge. It is so educating, even if it is your own breed. The quality was really high. I have heard that it should not be as good as in the past, but I do not agree - I was impressed. I especially noted that you have kept the nice big heads, correct proportions, nice croup and tail carriage. Most of them had good angulations in the front, which is currently a problem in other countries. You have also been able to make the rear movements very good - with not many problems with "cow hocks". Some were lacking in fore chest. The bites were mainly very good. A couple of dogs were missing P3, the rest had full dentations. I mostly found the coat was very good quality, and I did not see any problems with colour."
