yes very sad
Because its health tested then its 100% healthy
runny red eyes are natural for a Clumber

I think the thing is that they are no longer thinking of them as a DOG, looking like that is not healthy for a DOG
so it isnt healthy for a Clumber but they just dont see it

I have just seen on another forum that the Peke had an independent vet check and passed, they will be taking it further.

Did anyone see quite a few nervous looking dogs in the Pastoral group judging? The Malinois looked positively terrified I also thought the Border Collie looked lame?!

He did look nervous! Unfortunately that can be common in the breed. And he is also fairly young dog, one of the quickest-ever to get made up to Champion.

I loved the Laekenois - a Champion from Holland. Best Opposite Sex was also from the same breeder/exhibitor. I will be hoping that they will continue coming over for shows, as we could certainly do with some dogs of that quality here, and maybe they will allow the dog to be used at stud in the future.

I also thought the Border Collie looked lame?!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! not my imagination then!

The Komondor really didn't want to be there either - but I understand the owner has only had it for 3 months, due to its previous owners being unable to cope with it.

The Clumber Spaniel,i was shocked by its eyes, poor dog - to the uneducated like me, watching these dogs are supposed to be the best examples of their breed in my ignorance i would have assumed this was how they are supposed to look, but even to my novice eye i could see surely the eyes are not supposed to be like that ?

Wow -- Salty is NOT fat! he is a stunning example of the breed and not 'overdone' at all, unlike some show types.
