Puppy Dog or Bitch (3 entries, 1 absent)
| 1st | Adshead AFONBACH DANCE WITH DRAGONS Really lovely 8 months old female, balanced in build with sound movement. Typical wedge shaped head with excellent eye and ear set. Well made through the trunk; excellent top and underline with minimal tuck up. Desirable white markings on chest, feet and just starting on tail tip. Looked a picture on the move, so true and positive in footfall. |
| 2nd | Stobbart KATIMBA FALANGHINA AT SERENTAN Just 6 months and very much the raw baby. Smaller and slighter in build than the winner. Wedge shaped head with correct earset. Not as well developed in forechest with shorter upper arm. White markings on toe tips and chest. Good angulation and width through the hindquarters. Moved soundly. |
Junior Dog or Bitch (1 entry)
| 1st | Adshead AFONBACH WINTER IS COMING Litter brother to winner of the previous class, what exciting prospects both. Another that is very typical in build and characteristics. Pleasing size for his age. Correctly shaped and proportioned head with good ear set. White markings on feet and chest. Very well angulated in front with tight elbows. Good depth and spring to the ribcage. Super feet with firm pasterns. Excels in top and underline with well set on, well furnished tail. Densely coated. Moved out well with drive from the rear using his tail well. BPIB |
Post Graduate Dog or Bitch (3 entries, 1 absent)
| 1st | Adshead DANEHAVEN VERMILION FOR AFONBACH Compact female of good size. Excellent type with a good head and ear placement. Well angulated through the upper arm with good fill and breadth in the forechest. Balanced body depth to height to height ratio. Well ribbed. Round, tight feet. Excellent tail with ample feathering. I note from the catalogue she is Mum to the two winning pups and has clearly passed on the best of her qualities. |
| 2nd | Hipkiss REDAURORA COMET'S CHRISTMAS OF DELTANDAMBA Veteran girl. Typical wedged head shape with correct ear. Good breadth and fill in chest. Well angulated in front. Ample ribbing. Topline not as firm as the winners. Good depth through the body. Plenty width in thigh with hocks well let down. Well coated with heavy tail furnishing |
Open Dog or Bitch (2 entries, 1 absent)
| 1st | Hipkiss ERIKACHEN O'RUADH FOR DELTANDAMBA JW SHCM . Mature male, another who moves very soundly with the typical jaunty action. Looks so well balanced on the stack and is beautifully presented in full glorious coat and well furnished tail complete with white markings that are also present on the feet, chest and blaze. Masculine in head and expression. Compact in build with plenty depth through the body with an excellent top and underline. Really strong through the loin and hindquarters. Excellent round, tight feet. I now realise I have done him well previously in all breeds competition and found him equally impressive amongst breed peers. BOB and thrilled to see him take BIS4. |
