I would like to extend my gratitude to The Cairn Terrier Club Committee for giving me the opportunity to judge their Limit Show. A special thank you to my two stewards, Betty & Norma for their help in ensuring that everything went smoothly. With regard to the dogs, there were some really super exhibits and I had some hard decisions to make.
