Puppy Dog or Bitch (2 entries)
1st | Trickett CFYRE'S HIGH TEA AT TOLLPEPPER (IMP CAN) Medium sized bitch in good coat and condition. Although she appeared slightly long, preferred her for overall size and shape. Correct head, with kind expression and dropped ears. Deep chest with brisket reaching to elbow. She held her topline well both stood and on the move, correct level head carriage whilst moving. I will watch her development with interest. BP |
2nd | Davies ARELECHEN TARRY WITH ME PRAY More compact than first with finer bone showing her femininity. Preferred the eye shape and ears of first. Her expression was both intelligent and playful which was shown in her movement too. Happy tail which was constantly moving. |
Junior Dog or Bitch (5 entries)
1st | Strevens TOLLISTY YOU CAN'T DECLINE Lovely head with correctly set almond shaped eyes giving off a typical Toller expression. Good front angulation. A slightly longer and shorter male than 2, who won the class on his powerful jaunty movement. |
2nd | Parr SPRITERUFUS TANGO Lost out on movement today, preferred the overall size and shape of this male. Masculine wedged shaped head, another showing a typical intelligent Toller expression. Well angulated with good bone and in good coat. Just needs a little more experience in the ring to complete the picture. |

Post Graduate Dog or Bitch (5 entries)
1st | Elkin TOLLELKIN DREAM DANCER JW A modest bitch whilst stood, but excels once you get hands on. Another with a lovely intelligent expression. Muscular neck, leading into strong straight topline. Well angulated forequarters, balanced with the rear. Powerful, jaunty movement. |
2nd | Dorrell & Jenkins TOLLISTY MOET EN CHANDON JW On first look around the class I thought he would be my winner, unfortunately he was giving his handler a hard time today which let him down, especially on the move. Nice outline and proportions. Lovely clean cut skull, medium sized eyes showing a friendly yet alert expression and blending with his coat colour. Nice straight legs with good bone and tight feet. |

Limit Dog or Bitch (4 entries)
1st | Rogers EUSANIT PEAKY BLINDER 4 year old male. Loved him for size and substance. Best of wedge shaped head, with moderate stop. Almond eyes blending with coat colour and correct triangular ears. Nice strong neck and good front assembly, standing on strong straight forelegs. Good reach and drive on the move, however would benefit from being moved slightly slower to ensure accuracy. RBD |
2nd | Elkin TOLLELKIN DREAM HARBOUR JW A well-muscled male, would just prefer a touch more of him all over. Another with good front assembly, strong straight forelegs and deep chested with elbows close to body. Held his topline level both stood and on the move, used his well feathered tail to advantage. |

Open Dog (3 entries)
1st | Elkin TOLLELKIN CAIFE AMERICANO SGWC One that I have done well before. A larger male, but he is balanced, presenting a lovely outline and shown in good coat. Appealing head, with correct almond eyes blending well with coat colour. Correctly set triangular dropped ears. Deep chested with well spung ribs and a level topline held at all times. Tight feet. He is in hard condition, which allowed him to cover the ground well with powerful drive. BD, BOB |
2nd | Westwood IR SH CH EUSANIT PROPER JOB JW Another mature male, who was handled to advantage. Although he is of a different type and expression to 1 many of the same qualities apply. Masculine head, strong neck into short back with level topline. Stood on straight, strong forelegs, elbows close to body, deep chested with well spung ribs. Well bent stifles. Moved well, I just preferred the rear drive and feet of 1. |
3rd | Parr KYMIN UPSHI KREEK |
Open Bitch (6 entries)
1st | Davies CATCH FIRST YLVA GARONERA OF ARELECHEN (IMP CZE) Mature medium sized bitch in good coat and condition. Pleasing head and expression, kind eye, blending with coat colour. Neck strong flowing into well set shoulders. Deep chested with elbows close to body. Balanced angulation front and rear. Stood on good bone and with well bent stifles. Good coat and tail carriage. Movement won her the class, and ultimately Best Bitch. BB |
2nd | Strevens SH CH TOLLELKIN CAIFE GAELACH AT TOLLISTY Pretty bitch, well-shaped head and with a typical friendly Toller expression. She is totally feminine. Good lay of shoulder, and balanced angles front and rear. Lacking in coat today and not the movement of first. |

1st | Elkin TOLLELKIN WATER DANCER A nice bitch, another that is totally feminine. Good head and expression, almond eye. Strong, straight forelegs and good body, brisket reaching to elbow. Would prefer slightly tighter feet. Like all from this owner shown in hard condition, allowing her to move with purpose and drive. RBB, BV |
2nd | Davies KATMISTSKY'S SOUL DREAM RL6-EX Nice sized compact male. He was shown in full coat, although slightly harsh in texture. Well feathered in all the right places, and used his tail to advantage. Medium sized correctly set almond eye blending with coat. Well set triangular ears. Nice bone and feet. Held his topline well both moving and stood. |
