Thank you to the exhibitors for supporting me awarding CC's for the first time in this breed. I felt that there are some very good youngsters coming through the classes and this can only be a good thing for the breed. I found some a little short on leg which spoils their overall balance. Temperaments were superb and I has several "washes" as I was going over the delightful characters.
Puppy Dog (2 entries)
| 1st | Sewell LITTLECLOSE FATHER AND SON Smart youngster with an appealing and well proportioned head. Well placed ears which he used well. Good reach of neck leading neatly into the shoulders, straight front and tight round feet. Level topline and ribs springing well. Enough rear to give a balanced profile action going around the ring. |
| 2nd | Roberts & Beattie TOLLISTY LET THEM EAT CAKE Pleasing head which still needs to break and finish. Balanced angles fore and aft and well bodied for his age. Stands on good legs and feet. On the move he covered the ground, just needs to tighten on the out and back as he matures. |
Junior Dog (no entries)
Post Graduate Dog (5 entries)
| 1st | Smith & Gough CRETSHENGAN KITCHI LAKE (AI) Liked this chap for type and balance. Well proportioned head slightly wedge shaped and good eye and expression. Straight front and well placed shoulders, still needs to fill in front but this should come with age. Ribs well back and firm in loin. Well set on tail and good finish to the croup. Developed quarters which were used to advantage on the move. |
| 2nd | Brand COEDHELYG JINGLE ALL THE WAY Another showing good type and balance, slightly smaller all through but maintaining masculinity. Pleasing head and expression and well placed ears. Balanced angulation which meant he covered the ground in a typical jaunty action. |

| 1st | Fielder CRETSHENGAN TORRAN LOCH JW (AI) Last judged this boy as a puppy and was pleased to see him here as an adult and fulfilling his early potential. Masculine head with the right amount of work and being slightly wedge shaped. Strong in neck which led to well placed shoulders and a good front assembly. Straight front and round feet. Good through the rib and level in topline. Developed quarters with strong muscular development. Very sound action on the move in a jaunty and free action. Pushed hard for top honours. |
| 2nd | Copeland CAMUSMOR BRINGMESUNSHINE TO MENSTONIA Liked his balance and proportions of height to length ratio. Masculine in head with an alert expression. Strong neck, good lay of shoulder, would like a shade more return of upper arm. Good through the rib and loin and holding his topline throughout. Well set on tail which was carried to advantage. In fabulous muscular condition with well bent stifles. Not as positive in front action as the winner, really driving from behind. |

| 1st | Elkin TOLLELKIN CAIFE AMERICANO SGWC Another that I have judged before and done well. At the time I said he just needed a little more maturity and he would be ready for top honours, well today he proved me right and looked the complete package in such good form. Presenting a smart outline, good leg length and the right amount of body. He has a certain air about him as he enters the ring and is up for the job ahead of him. Masculine and well moulded in head with a typical expression and well-placed neat ears. Strong through the neck and with a very well put together front assembly. He has now bodied up well and is in very muscular condition. Well bend stifles with good muscular development of the first and second thigh. Topline and tailset are very good and he carries his tail to advantage. On the move he had an accurate footfall, covered the ground in an unhurried and jaunty action all topped off with good carriage. My pleasure to award him the CC and later Best of Breed. |
| 2nd | Newson TIVALAKE LET'S MISBEHAVE JW Good make and shape to this chap showing balance and good proportions. Appealing head and expression with well placed ears. Good through the neck into shoulders and firm in topline. Enough return of forearm and depth to his chest. Ribbed back and firm through the loin. Developed quarters which were used well in his profile action. Not as accurate on the out and back as the winner. |

| 1st | Strevens SH CH ERIKACHEN CONAIRE AT TOLLISTY JW SHCM SHCEX VW I have awarded this dog Best of Breed in the past and today he was pipped by his son. Great to see him again and still showing many of the youngsters how it is done. Lovely masculine head piece with typical alert expression and well set ears. Strong neck and good shoulders, not quite the forearm of Caife Americano. Super body proportions and in fabulous coat and condition. Quarters well made with a good bent to his stifles and good development of first and second thigh. Moved freely in a jaunty action around the ring. Pleasure to award him RCC. |
| 2nd | Wright ERIKACHEN DAITHI OF WRIGHTPAW JW SHCM Pleasing make and shape. Masculine in head and expression a little strong in back skull for my taste. Strong neck and well laid shoulders. Ribs back and well set on tail. Quarters developed and using them well in side profile. |

Clean through the neck and shoulders with a straight front and neat feet. Good bone and substance throughout with ribs well sprung. Slightly longer through the loin, her hard condition meant she maintained her topline throughout. Well set on tail and developed quarters. She moved out well and covered the ground effortlessly in a typical manner, which gave her the class. |
| 2nd | Elkin TOLLELKIN DREAM DANCER JW Liked the proportions of this lady, good height to length ratio and clean in outline. Feminine head although I would like a little more width to balance it out. Strong and clean in neck with a good shoulder placement. Required layback of shoulder and depth to her forechest. Well bodied with a firm topline and correct finish to the croup. Quarters well angulated. On the move she had a typical gait but was not quite as fluid going away as Celtic Sea. |

Moderate length of neck which fitted neatly into her shoulders and a very well made front assembly. Slightly longer cast and carrying a little weight today which spoilt her topline at times. Well made quarters with a good bend of stifle and short from hock to heel. Very sound and typical on the move she gave the impression of strength and stamina. |
