A fantastic breed which seems to be establishing itself with some ardent fans. I have been in the fortunate situation that I have been able to judge the breed, often overseas, and in Norway, where I judged a breed Club show some years ago, when I found a very high standard. On the day I found type more even than when I judged them last year. I was particularly impressed by my young Junior dog that won BOB. What a topper! So well balanced, grand front and quarters and as sound as they come on the move. Add this to his excellent tail carriage and his whole attitude, he loves showing himself off. I see a promising career for the star. Temperaments excellent. This handy size friendly dog is a breed which could take on with the public.
