Puppy Dog or Bitch (1 entry)

1stSewell BREAKERSWELL CLEARWATER
7m old bitch. Basic shape of head there but lots to develop. Her skull is clean cut but wedge shape, flat cheeks with moderate stop. Amber eyes of almond shape, set correctly. Medium length to neck with adequate muscle. She has a good front assembly with moderate muscle tone and well laid back shoulders. Presents a good fore chest and straight front. She has tight round feet and good bone. Her body is well balanced with a good spring of rib and level topline. She has a moderate bend of stifle at the moment but short hocks and well developed hindquarters with good second thigh. She was in lovely coat and condition and displayed a very happy disposition. Her jaunty movement with plenty of reach and drive showed she was enjoying her day. BP

Adult Handling Dog or Bitch (4 entries, 2 absent)

Judge: Isobel Taylor (Saffrosa)

2ndGough
Another handler who evidently takes the time to learn about what is wanted in the handling ring. Elizabeth is a competent handler who has the basics down, moving her charge at the correct pace with straight lines, along with presenting the teeth correctly. A conscious effort to shadow was made throughout the class & Elizabeth never obstructed my view of her charge. I just found 1s performance to be more polished on the day as 2s charge was not always stacked correctly. Well done!
