Kinsey-Morgan's Inzievar Gold Edition
Miller's Puddockswell Moonshadow
Veteran
1st: McLeod's Healaval Usquebae
This mustard dog fairly glided across the ring, lovely pencilled coat of correct texture, correct tailset, good front, well laid back shoulders, lovely head & expression, good heartroom, good drive from the rear, kept a good topline on the move, impressed well enough to award him RBD, a happy boy in lovely condition.
2nd: Mannia's Finloren The Lion In Winter at Kirskill
This little man enjoyed his day, lovely pencilled mustard jacket of correct texture, correct earset, correct tail carriage, good length of body & depth of chest, nice topline, moved well & in really good condition.
Puppy
1st: Miller's Puddockswell Moonshadow
Pepper, not too sure of himself in such a large hall but certainly did what his owner asked of him for such a youngster. Coat of correct texture coming through, moved soundly, good heartroom, nice expression & neck. Just that little bit more mature than 2. BP.
2nd: Bedborough's Puddockswell Gilded Lily from Pitfirrane
Mustard, very much a baby who would have preferred to just sit down. Coat of correct texture coming through, but rather short. Pretty little bitch who just needs more maturity, lovely little mover when I could see it. Correct tailset, fine ears, lovely dark eye. Just needs to settle in the ring.
Junior Dog
1st: Skitt & Jones's Vistca Vincent
Mustard, one I shall be watching out for, lovely front & drive at the rear, good head peeping through a profuse topknot, lovely angulation, nice neck & lay of shoulders, correct tailset, well padded feet, good topline. Just very short of coat however, he is a very promising young dog who moved soundly.
2nd: MacPherson's Pitfirrane Silver Melody
Nice young dog, good head coming through, nice fine & low earset, good movement, correct tailset, good dark eye. Needs a bit more coat but should mature nicely.
Graduate Dog
1st: Skitt & Jones's Vistca Vincent
Open Dog
1st: Buist & the late Jamieson's Ch. Inzievar Silver Gilt
Pepper, this dog is another who just glided across the ring, good topline kept on the move, lovely angulation, elbows well tucked under, nice lay of shoulder, lovely head with silky topknot, good ribbing, correct tailset, in excellent coat & condition. BOB, pleased to see he then went on to get BIS, a good ambassador for the breed.
2nd: Morrice's Shonillian Dandilly Digby
Mustard, another lovely dog with a beautiful pencilled red coat, moved well & happily, lovely head & expression, very nice length which is good to see when in correct proportions as this one is, nice ear & tailset, dark eye, head in correct proportion to nose, well padded feet. Just needs to ‘body’ up a bit to complete the picture.
Graduate Bitch
1st: Kinsey-Morgan's Inzievar Gold Edition
Mustard, very feminine pretty bitch, lovely head & expression, nice topline kept on the move, good coat of correct texture, nice angulation, fine low set ears, correct tailset, dark eye, plenty of heartroom & in lovely condition, promising. RBB.
Open Bitch
1st: Mannia's Ch. Wazzly Persephone at Kirskill
Pepper, beautifully well presented jacket of correct texture, lovely topline maintained on the move, correct tailset, lovely head & expression, good layback of shoulders, good angulation, very nice length, a very honest little bitch who should still have a promising future. BB.
2nd: Bedborough's Pitfirrane Sweet Myrtle
Pepper, nice girl this one, just out of coat but a really nice shape. Good head & earset, moved soundly, carried tail correctly, nice angulation with elbows tucked well in, nice round dark eye.
