BEDLINGTON JUDGE DARLINGTON 25

PD (2)

1 Mickleview Havest Moon At ten months old, this is quite a tall puppy who has grown up in the air and now needs to settle down into his adult balance. Very typical head with excellent length, very little stop, good earset, prominent occiput, excellent eyes. Masculine expression. Long neck, well set. Very moderately angulated in front, typically wider on top and then narrower near the ground. Very pleasing topline standing. Moderate, balanced angulation behind. A good coat coming through. He tended to shorten himself quite a bit on the move, but moved light on his feet and quite sound coming and going

2 Rhicullen Blue Knight An obviously much younger puppy, still to grow up on legs and shape up. Lovely temperament. Excellent head with length, correct head planes and expression. Excellent pigmentation. Medium long neck, well set. Moderate, balanced angulation both ends. In a very good puppy coat. He needs to settle on the move.

JD (1)

1 Sharnor Sultan of Spica An instantly attractive eye-catching dog of excellent type and quality. Lovely head with length, shape and very attractive expression. Dark eyes. Good rise of neck. Enough length of body. Excellent topline, good layback of upper arm. Typical front. Balanced angulation behind. He is a very good mover from the side and from the front, reasonable behind. In an excellent coat. Well prepared and handled. ResCC.

PGD (3)

1 Maristella Mitena Among Durhamites Instantly attractive sand coloured dog with a very pleasing balance. Tall and masculine. Strong head, I would prefer less cheeks. Pleasing expression from correctly shaped eyes. Good neck into shoulder, pleasing return of upper arm. Quite shapely in his body. moderate angulation behind. I would prefer some more coat left on him as the skin shows through too much and makes it hard to assess his coat quality. Moved very well from the side and in front, not brilliant behind being rather bowlegged.

2 Mactufts Gentleman’s Game Dog of pleasing size, he could do with some more length of leg. Typical head with enough length and correctly very little stop. Very good ears. Moderate neck. Could do with some more arch over his loin. Balanced angulation both ends. He is rather soft in his coat. Quite a good mover, especially from the side.

3 Little Bristle Charmer Belabrisl

OD (4)

1 Ch. Conekesheved Out Of The Blue JW An easy winner of the class, he is an excellent representative of his breed and sex. Combines being masculine with elegance and quality. Excellent head with good length and correct stop and ears. Pleasing neck. Moderate, balanced angulation both ends. Typical topline, but at times feeling the cold and then shortening himself. One of the few with excellent structure in his coat. By far the best mover, sound and typical from all angles. In the challenge for BOB he messed up and did not look anywhere near as good as when he won the CC.

2 Bisbee Bulldozer With Tessarion A dog of pleasing size, but he could overall be somewhat more masculine. His best is still to come at 2 years old. Refined head, pleasing expression. Good rise of neck. Balanced moderate angulation both ends. A medium good mover from the side, reasonable coming and going. Pleasing topline which he kept on the move. Not quite the coat quality of the winner.

3 Ch. L’end Show Melody Maker

VB (1)

1 Rhicullen Dancing Girl At seven years old, this bitch is in very good condition. She is on the larger and stronger side for a bitch, not quite feminine enough. Pleasing head properties and expression. Well set ears. Medium rise of neck. Could do with some more arch over the loin. Deep and capacious body. Moderate, balanced angulation both ends. I would prefer some more structure to her coat. Typical feet. A well balanced mover, quite sound coming and going. Best Veteran.

PB (2)

1 Mickleview Layla Shapely and well proportioned, elegant and feminine bitch, excellent type. Very typical, feminine head with length and shape. Very good rise of neck, well set. Excellent topline. Could put some more weight on her front standing. She has very good structure to her coat and was very well presented. Retained her lovely shape on the move, but needs to stabilize quite a lot in her front movement. Best Puppy and resCC.

2 Mickleview After Midnight By Tessarion Very feminine, elegant bitch, needs to gain some more substance. Refined head, needs a stronger jaw. Good rise of neck. Quite pleasing body shape and proportions. Needs to develop in her front. Another with quite pleasing coat structure, if not as good as the winner. Moved light on her feet, but also needs to stabilize in her front.

JB (2)

Two very good bitch, even if rather different.

1 Fralex Culibre Jacquetta A very feminine bitch, instantly attractive and well proportioned. Delightful head with length and correct stop and extension. Pleasing neck, well set. Moderately angulated but balanced both ends. Typical front construction for her breed. Excellent topline standing. She has some structure to her coat. A very effortless mover moving out very well at both ends and sound coming and going, if at times tending to lose some of her topline. Still a top class bitch. CC & BOB.

2 Silverkinn Spice Girl Another attractive bitch. She is stronger and sturdier. Another with a long and typical head with all the features. Rather big ears. Good rise of neck. Very good overall construction, but does not have the narrowness between her front feet. Deep and capacious body with pleasing body shape. Well angulated behind. Quite a quite good coat. A very sound mover coming and going, but not the extension of the winner. Unfortunately she did not return for the challenge for the resCC, which may well have been a mistake.

PGB (3,2)

1 Daldorn Candy Kisses A sound and generally well constructed bitch, on the stronger and longer side. She has a strong head with correct stop and good length. Pleasing expression. Moderate rise of neck. Moderate, balanced angulation both ends. Deep and capacious body. Enough topline. A no nonsense sound mover. Quite good coat quality. Correct hare feet.

LB (3)

1 Honeymist Dazzle Me A bitch with quality and type. She has a feminine head with enough length to it. Pleasing expression. Good neck, correctly angulated in front. She has a definite arch over the loin, bordering on too much. A good coat with some structure in it. She moved well from the side, could perfect her coming and going.

2 Worth Waiting For From Ycart A really good moving bitch. Standing she could have more length of leg and not as balanced as some, somewhat anonymous. Feminine head, could be longer. Excellent expression and pigmentation. Well angulated. Pleasing arch of loin. Indeed her movement is quite outstanding which earned her the place in the class. Looks like she has structure in the coat, but not as good on closer inspection.

3 Janmark Dame Dame Dame

OB (3,1)

1 Ch. Janmark The Name of the Game JW Very elegant and feminine bitch, could do with some more substance. Elegant, feminine head with good length to it and an attractive head profile. Pleasing expression. Long neck. I would prefer some more angulation both ends. Pleasing topline. Reasonable coat quality. She moved light on her feet, but I would like to see more drive.

2 Mactufts Nanny Mcphee Workmanlike bitch with one leg in each corner. I would like a more refined head. Large ears. Good rise of neck. Well angulated in both ends. She has enough topline standing, but tended to flatten out on the move. Sound coming towards me and used her legs well from the side.
