Puppy Dog or Bitch (2 entries)
| 1st | Greenwood & Horgan COEDHELYG MERRY FISHER A very raw young bitch at her first show who took the whole event in her stride. Pleasing proportions of length to height and enough leg for her age. Prettiest and clean-cut head with a moderate stop and correct shape to skull and muzzle with still room to develop further. Liked her correct balance of front and rear angulation with a strong topline, decent spring of rib for age and moderate tuck up. Plenty of width over her quarters and correct set tail. Her static balance was also obvious on the move with correct reach & drive while retaining her shape. Her strong rear action when viewed from behind secured her the class against her kennelmate. Pleased to award her BPIB, congratulations! |
| 2nd | Greenwood COEDHELYG SON SHINE This 7 month old male is from a larger and slightly more compact mould than 1. Masculine, clean-cut head with good skull shape for age. Excellent forehand with strong bone and round feet. Well bodied for age. A shade more moderate in rear angulation than 1 and needing to strengthen in hock. Goes on a steady stride from all angles, needs time. |
Junior Dog or Bitch (1 entry, 1 absent)
Post Graduate Dog or Bitch (4 entries, 3 absent)
| 1st | Brand COEDHELYG JINGLE ALL THE WAY A middle size, honest male with lots of appeal. His head is clean with correct rounding in skull and moderate stop, I’d just prefer a shade more strength for a male. Excellent layback of shoulder and return of upper arm with straight limbs and round feet. Well bodied with a short loin. A little more moderate in rear compared to front with a good tail set. He excels on the move with a true and springy action when viewed from any angle with the desired head carriage |
Open Dog or Bitch (4 entries)
| 1st | Adshead SH CH DANEHAVEN VERMILION FOR AFONBACH SHCM This girl excels in type and overall balance. She really belies her veteran years and not being in her best jacket only meant her many attributes were even clearer to see! Absolutely medium size, powerful and in hard condition. Ultra feminine, clean-cut head with moderate stop and almond shaped eyes. Clean through her neck and shoulders with correct forehand assembly, strong bone with straight limbs. Shows great maturity through her body with well sprung ribs, strong topline and loin with a moderate tuck up. Corresponding rear angulation with short, firm hocks. On the move, she is exquisite. Springy, jaunty and powerful, putting her correct angulation to good use while retaining her shape. Thought her to be absolutely delightful and not surprised to see she has her title! Pleased to award her BOB, congratulations. |
| 2nd | Adshead AFONBACH WINTER IS COMING JW As masculine as my winner is feminine. Built on slightly more compact lines than 1, this dog is unmistakably male. Shows strength in head while retaining the desired tapering through the muzzle. Well shaped eye and correctly set ears create a friendly expression. Excellent forehand with strong bone. Strong topline, shorter in back than 1 with a strong loin. Decent rear angles with correct set and carried tail. Powerful mover who makes his presence felt on the go around with true front/rear action. |
