Judge - Dogs & Intersex: Tony Floyd (Trenow Labs - England)

We wish to thank the JSLRC for their invitation to us
and for the true American welcome afforded to us during both days of the show.
Despite the heat, to which we are unaccustomed, we enjoyed the days and were particularly impressed
by the sportsmanship of the exhibitors, both towards our placings and towards each other.
