Judge – Mr J Rudbach
| Thank you to the Secretary and committee for inviting me to judge Clumber Spaniels at their show and the two stewards who were very professional and very helpful, and made my day a lot easier, and thank you to all the exhibitors for entering under me. On the hole I found the quality of dogs excellent, although I did find a few with dental issues and a few where I struggled to find a waist line | |

Excellent & head shape with good drop of lip, well developed shoulders, straight front, tight feet, deep chest, good tuck up with a nice waistline, level top line whilst standing and on the move,& good turn of stifle, tail held well, viewed in profile she looked stunning, moved with drive.
