A most sincere “thank you” to the PWCCGS for inviting me to judge your Annual Fall Match. A special “thanks” to show chairman Harold Small and Chief ring steward, Lynne Small, for a well-organized event, and for selecting my excellent ring steward, Karen Gunzel. She kept me on track.
My gift of “corgi” salt and pepper shakers is adorable — thank you!
To those who worked so hard to make this a special day — Congratulations! You succeeded. To those who showed me their lovely corgis, thank you; and please remember the opinions and placings are only on the day. Puppies especially can change dramatically.
Although the weather did not cooperate, the dogs and handlers did. I thoroughly enjoyed my day.
