JUDGE'S NOTES

Always a pleasure to be amongst the Glen fanciers, who still take part with a smiling face - win or lose. In the four years since I last judged, the breed has made good strides. There is more quality in depth & a greater uniformity of type and size; presentation has improved. Thanks for the good entry of 27 dogs with just the two absentees.
