1^st

Smith CAMUSMOR GLEN SCOTIA AT DALLYVISTA
Favourite of mine who just gets better with age. Lovely head and eye, cleanest of fronts, good reach of neck set in well placed shoulders, excellent depth of chest, level topline which he keeps on the move, good bend of stifle, correct tailset and carriage, moved soundly. In the challenge just had to give way to the exuberance of the younger bitch, but a credit to the breed, BD and BV.
