My 1st time awarding CC's - Thanks to NGA for their hospitality & to the exhibitors for their patience due to the rather delayed start.


Veteran Dog (6 entries, 2 absent)

Lovely class of veterans to begin with.

1stWestwood & Johnson CAN/IR SH CH LITTLERIVER'S COLONIAL BOY WITH TOLLYHIMMEL (IMP CAN)
Have judged this boy before. Good head & eye, correct ear placement, well placed shoulders. Nice depth to chest. Double coated. Moved with drive & vigour, he can still show the young ones how it should be done. BV.
2ndStobbart & Bartlett CAMUSMOR WHATADREAM SHCM
Nice head & eye with good earset. Good feet. Well muscled quarters with good tail carriage. Moved well but didn't have the positive action of 1.

Puppy Dog (1 entry)

1stWeston & Bayne ACADIAN ARTEMISE
Alone, but worth 1st place. Just 6 months, a little apprehensive at first but soon settled. Good bone for age, needs a little more length to leg. Just enough body. Coat starting to develop. Moved steadily.

Junior Dog (2 entries)

1stFielder & Ashton EUSANIT STAND AND DELIVER
Up to size, good amount of bone & depth to chest. Nice head & eye. His coat at the in between stage. Movement was erratic at times, hopefully should settle down. He needs time to mature.
2ndWilliams DECOYMANS PIPER BORA
Very immature compared to 1. Good length of neck & nice head. A little narrow in front. Would like more bone & body. Again needs time to develop.

Graduate Dog (1 entry)

1stFrench & Penelrick KYMIN MATTER OF FACT
Alone, nice head & neck, coat still developing. Would prefer more length of leg & tighter feet. Good bend of stifle. Moved soundly & steadily.

Post Graduate Dog (8 entries, 1 absent)

1stDixon TOLLERICE ARNASUN
Starting to mature, good head & earset. Lovely length of neck & shoulders. In good coat & nicely bodied. Just needs to develop depth to chest. Moved well.

1stAnstead RIVERWATCHER ATKA
Liked his overall construction & soundness. Good depth to chest. Good head & eye. Firm topline. Neat feet. Nicely bodied. He needs time to develop. At the moment, he lacked the maturity of CC winner.
2ndBurchell TIVALAKE JINGLE BELL ROCK
Have done this boy well before as puppy. Good head & eye & shoulder placement. Well muscled, moved with drive. Occasionally, his topline softens which spoils his outline. In good coat.

Veteran Bitch (3 entries, 1 absent)

1stAnstead SHOREDANCER SEA PINK VIA RIVERWATCHER
Hard to believe she's a veteran. I gave her BOB back in 2009! She still has a feminine head, good depth to chest. Maybe carrying a little more weight now but still shows the same spark she had then.
2ndPalfrey FOXDOWN MY FAIR LADY
In good condition, nicely bodied. Good head & eye. Nice length of neck & tight feet. Moved soundly. A pleasure to judge both of these 'young' ladies.

3Holt RIVERWATCHER K'EYUSH WITH MENSTONIA
What a class act this four year old dog proved to be. Superb temperament and businesslike in attitude. His presentation and condition couldn't be faulted and he moved with confident, economic and positive stride.
