Limit Dog or Bitch (5 entries)
1st | Andrews TOLLELKIN DREAM SPRING AT JEMMATEE This little bitch really impressed me. Lovely head and expression. Excellent front good body and super topline. Good angulation both front and rear, in super coat and well feathered tail. The best moving dog I judged all day, showing power and speed you expect from this breed. Ideally I would prefer her to be slightly taller but this detail was far outweighed by her qualities. BOB. |
2nd | Strevens TOLLISTY YOU CAN'T DECLINE Another lovely dog of excellent balance when stacked. Good wedge shape to head and lovely eye. Super colour to coat and well bent stifle to rear, moved well. |

1st | Strevens SH CH TOLLELKIN CAIFE GAELACH AT TOLLISTY A bitch I have done well before great breed type, correct in head with good body, correct angulation both front and rear. Super coat and condition, movement very sound and correct. In the challenge I felt the enthusiasm of the limit winner and puppy could not be denied for BOB AND RBOB. |
2nd | Elkin TOLLELKIN DREAM HARBOUR JW Another very nice example of the breed, with good head profile straight front good front angulation, and good bend of stifle on rear. Super body with excellent tail feathering, in good coat and condition. |

Judge: Dr Ian Gabriel
1st | Strevens TOLLISTY SHINCHA Very nice for size and overall type. Very feminine. Good head and expression. Well ribbed up. Just falls away sat little too much at the croup which detracts from the overall appearance. Moved well just needs to settle in front |
