I would like to thank the Boston DCS Committee for their invitation to judge Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers at this lovely show. I was delighted with a strong entry of 40 to judge and thank the exhibitors for showing in front of me. Many thanks to my very efficient and helpful stewards Kelly and Bruce who kept me on the straight and narrow at my first Championship appointment.
