Puppy Dog or Bitch (3 entries)
| 1st | Golding WHENOVA PAMPERO promising young bitch, liked her head and expression, good body and bone, good coat and condition, still needs to tighten throughout and settle on the move but has an active trot, BP |
| 2nd | Heaton WHENOVA CHINOOK litter brother to my winner but very raw at the moment, lots to like and similar comments apply, but will need time to develop and come together especially on the move. |
| 3rd | Peat TOLLISTY GINGER CHAI |
Special Yearling Dog or Bitch (1 entry)
| 1st | Adshead AFONBACH SYRAX JW feminine compact young bitch, I liked her for type and size, good head with alert expression, strong neck into well laid shoulder, good depth of chest and spring of rib, well-muscled hindquarters, correct undercoat & well feathered, lively mover covering her ground well, pleased to award her BOB |
Limit Dog or Bitch (4 entries, 1 absent)
| 1st | Trueman CRETSHENGAN LAKE ITASCA (AI) lots to like on this dog, nice head and alert expression, strong neck, good body and topline, well sprung ribs finished with a full coat and shown in good condition, moved well, but lacked the sparkle of my BOB winner. |
| 2nd | Copeland & Knowles EUSANIT IT'LL BE REET AT MENSTONIA another very nice dog and lots to like, balanced both standing and on the move, bigger in frame than my winner and just preferred the head on 1 |
| 3rd | Brand COEDHELYG JINGLE ALL THE WAY |
Open Dog or Bitch (3 entries)
| 1st | Adshead AFONBACH WINTER IS COMING JW mature dog with no coarseness, good head with alert expressive eye, strong neck, well laid shoulders, good bone and feet, strong topline and correctly set on tail, correct coat and undercoat, moved well as he drove round the ring. |
| 2nd | Copeland CAMUSMOR BRINGMESUNSHINE TO MENSTONIA another nice mature dog, similar remarks as above, shown in excellent condition with a full coat just didn’t move with the same enthusiasm as the winner. |
| 3rd | Trueman CROFTWELL TICKETY BOO |
