On the whole the breed is very sound moving, in particular hind movement. Please watch the forequarters as a few exhibits were much shorter on the forelegs & I found a couple that had a slight crook to the forelegs shortening them even more.

1stSmith CAMUSMOR GLEN SCOTIA AT DALLYVISTA
Close decision, 1 scoring on compactness, wedge shaped head, almond shaped eyes giving a friendly expression, high set ears of medium size, good boned limbs, tight feet, elbows close fitting, strong neck, well ribbed body for age, well angulated behind, moved with good reach & drive behind, well carried tail. BP & RBD.
2ndEdridge CAMUSMOR BRUICHLADDICH AT TILITA
So very similar in type to his brother but head wasn't quite so balanced as stop was deeper set. Eyes although had a friendly expression were more rounded & his ears that were well set were larger. Strong neck, well boned limbs, very good ribbing, well angulated behind, moved with reach & drive, super coat.
