Thank you to the officers and committee for inviting me to judge at this very well run show and to my very efficient stewarding duo Pam and Keith. I had a really enjoyable time judging quality dogs with the most sporting owners and exhibitors


Minor Puppy Dog (2 entries)

1stRogers EUSANIT PEAKY BLINDER
Very much to like. Head clean cut and balanced, eyes of good colour and shape, ears set on high which all contributed to a melting alert expression. Excellent front angulation. Deep in chest and elbows close. Good bone. Well developed rear. Good topline and tail carried well and moved very steady for one so young. In excellent coat and condition and well presented. Pleased to award BP.
2ndWestwood EUSANIT PROPER JOB JW
Very good head proportions. Shoulders well laid and correct in topline. Moved with good rear drive once settled.

Well set ears. Shoulder angulation excellent and together with very good rear angulation and well bent stifles allowed him to move very well, with a springy stride and good tail set and carriage.

Superb class and probably the closest decisions of the day.

1stAnstead MULTI CH RIVERWATCHER ATKA
n first look loved his head, eyes of good colour and friendly and alert expression. Strong neck to well laid shoulders. Deep chest and elbows tight. Good bone. Well muscled rear. Kept a good topline on the move and carried his well feathered tail correctly. A proper showman. BD. Moved around the ring in challenge really well with good drive. Pleased to award BOB.
2ndFielder SCHINDOW JUNIOR COWBOY WITH CRETSHENGAN
Another super dog. My notes say not over exaggerated in any way. Good length of neck and deep in chest with good front angulation. Rear angulation well muscled and strong in second thigh. In good coat and condition. RBD.

2ndRogers EUSANIT CHASE THE DREAM
I really like this un-exaggerated feminine and balanced girl. Showed with a wagging tail and great rear drive. Stood a little loose and not so settled on the move on the day.

A very strong class of quality bitches. I am sure they will change places many times. Movement and weight also played a part on the day.

1stRogers TOLLYHIMMEL DRUNKUN DUCK
Lovely type. Clean in skull, eyes alert, friendly expression. Neck well set on, shoulders well laid and elbows close. Straight boned forelegs. Deep chested and well sprung ribs. Short back and level topline. Good strength in rear and moved out well. Fully mature and in good coat and condition. BB and RBOB.
2ndWestwood & McDonald IR SH CH EUSANIT GONNA MAKE YOU A STAR
Liked a lot and very close up to winner. Particularly liked head and expression. Superb in front and deep in chest and strong rear. Just would not co-operate and move out as I am sure she can.
