JUDGE: ROBERT HUNTER
Penrith Show I 15th July 2023
It was indeed a privilege to be asked to judge the Dairy shorthorn classes at Penrith Show, apart from the terrible weather the day was thoroughly enjoyable.
My father once said, “a good dairy animal is a good dairy animal whatever its breed” and the Dairy Shorthorns classes did not disappoint. The cows on show I really admired for their breed character, body capacity with great legs and feet which for me are very important, because, we are all trying to breed cows which last longer, and the cows on show certainly ticked this box,
Thank you to all exhibitors who took the time and effort to parade their cattle in such a professional manner under appalling weather conditions, all classes were of a high standard and the young stock quality shows that the future of the breed is secure.
