I greatly appreciated this entry of 28 dogs without certificates at this show and the exhibitors' patience with the late start. I was concerned by the lack of quality of both dogs and bitches in the lower classes.
Puppy Dog (2 entries, 1 absent)
| 1st | Collins & Powley DANEHAVEN KOVIK 11mth youngster at the rather rangy stage. Decent head with pleasant expression, his gait viewed in profile was strong covering the ground well. BP. |
Junior Dog (4 entries, 1 absent)
| 1st | Collins & Powley DANEHAVEN KOVIK |
| 2nd | Titovets & Eremin MACDREAMS TRENT FROM CASHEL VALE RL1 (IMP NLD) Smaller dark dog well made and balanced, expression spoilt by light eye, winner moved better. |
Post Graduate Dog (6 entries, 1 absent)
| 1st | Candy DECOYMANS PIPER MEGREZ Red dog of correct size, construction, proportion and balance. Good head and lovely dark eye and expression and a good strong mover. |
| 2nd | Rice TIAMARIA HARVEST GOLD Slightly taller and not so balanced as the winner but nonetheless a nice dog that moved well. |
| 3rd | Titovets & Eremin MACDREAMS TRENT FROM CASHEL VALE RL1 (IMP NLD) |
| Res | Fletcher ASTERLILY HEKA |
| VHC | Rice & Collins GABERLUNZIE PIPER |
Open Dog (5 entries)
Top quality in this class making for close decisions. Two excellent mature males both of correct size and structure. Balanced, fit, alert and active movers winner just that little tidier on the move today.
| 1st | Moult & Savory ACANUCK SOUL REBEL OF CROFTWELL BD & BOB |
| 2nd | Strevens ERIKACHEN CONAIRE AT TOLLISTY JW SHCM Res BD & Res BOB. |
| 3rd | Powley CHRILIKAS DUKE OF DANEHAVEN (IMP NOR) |
| Res | Davies KATMISTSKY'S SOUL DREAM RL5 |
| VHC | Candy DECOYMANS PIPER MEGREZ |
Veteran Dog (1 entry)
| 1st | Powley DANEHAVEN SEVERN Wonderful spritely 11yr old solid red dog. Correct for size, construction and balance. Extremely powerful mover close decision for res BD. Best Veteran |
Puppy Bitch (2 entries)
| 1st | Taylor WAKADUZE WIYAKA Small 8mth bitch at the in-between stages of development for height and length ratio and therefore not balanced. Decent head and expression and a steady mover. |
| 2nd | Rice & Leak SUMMER DANCE OF TOLLEROSSO Another at an unfortunate stage being tall and rangy will take time to fill her frame. Most probably a better prospect than the winner but erratic movement let her down today. |
Junior Bitch (3 entries)
| 1st | Taylor WAKADUZE WIYAKA |
| 2nd | Tester GINGAFING LET'S GO CRAZY Another one that needs time, not at all balanced, too long for height at the moment. A steady little mover. |
| 3rd | Rice & Leak SUMMER DANCE OF TOLLEROSSO |
Post Graduate Bitch (5 entries)
Two quality bitches headed this class.
| 1st | Moult & Savory EUSANIT NAUGHTY BUT NICE FOR CROFTWELL JW Lovely bitch just right for size and balance, all angles correct and in proportion. Very fit and active, strong driving propulsion from the rear, correct tail carriage. I liked this one a lot. BB. |
| 2nd | Newson TIVALAKE MORE THAN WISHES Very similar and a close decision who could change places another day. Winner just that bit tidier moving to and fro today. Res BB. |
| 3rd | Collins & Powley DANEHAVEN DETROYES |
| Res | Elkin TOLLELKIN WATER DANCER |
| VHC | Bull TOLLELKIN RED LAKE |
Open Bitch (2 entries, 1 absent)
| 1st | Savory ALLIANCE DE LA VIE RABBIT RACER OF KATIMBA (IMP NLD) Mature quality bitch. Bright and alert, all angles correct, strong accurate mover. |
Veteran Bitch (4 entries)
| 1st | Savory & Moult CORLITGOLD TAHLIA OF CROFTWELL RL2-EX Beautiful 9yr old bitch all proportions correct and balanced with good strong driving movement. |
| 2nd | Savory & Moult CORLITGOLD MALILA OF CROFTWELL RL2-EX 10½ yr old sister of winner, moved with power and drive belying her age. Confidently handled by a youngster just over half as old as the dog. Well done, handling obviously runs in the human pedigree! |
| 3rd | Strevens DECOYMANS PIPER CINDER AT TOLLISTY RL2 |
