NORFOLK JUDGE BOSTON 17

Norfolk Terrier

PD (3,2)

1. Thompson-Morgan’s Belleville Slipknot NAF. What a cracking puppy to start the day with! He excels for type and has the most delightful head and expression with nice breadth to skull, wedge-shaped muzzle of correct length, dark oval-shaped eyes, good ears for size and set and correct dentition. Compact in outline with moderate length of neck, short level back, good length of ribcage, rib developing well, short muscular loin and good tail set. He is so well made he just cannot stand wrong and he moves true and with purpose. Quality coat and presentation. Best Puppy and later placed 4th in the Puppy Group.

JD (2,0)

1. Stevenson’s Brickin Pot of Pickle. This 12 mth old was an easy winner in this class. Quality youngster of excellent type and balance. He presented a compact outline with strong neck of moderate length, firm level topline, well sprung ribs which are carried well back, short loin and excellent tail set. Attractive, well proportioned head with good width between his correctly set ears, dark expressive eyes, strong wedge-shaped muzzle and scissor bite. Well laid shoulders, standing nice and straight in front on good feet, muscular hindquarters with good turn of stifle. Moving true and using himself to advantage. Delightful temperament. Reserve Best Dog.

2. Philip’s Nordalset Made to Boogie. 13 mth of different type to the winner, not nearly as mature and slightly longer cast. Pleasing head and expression with nice breadth to skull, well defined stop, strong wedge-shaped muzzle of correct length, excellent eye for shape and colour and correct dentition. Ears are well set but a little larger. Strong neck of medium length, rib developing well and tail set on well. Slightly out at elbow which affects his front action but he stands on good feet. Moving well when viewed in profile and from behind. Well handled.

PGD (1,0)

1. Thompson-Morgan’s Belleville Slipknot NAF

OD (1,0)

1. Gee’s Ch Watercroft Chilli Pepper. Quality boy of 21 mths and one who has done well under me previously being my BPIS winner at the Club Show last year. Since then I see he has gone on to gain his title and deservedly so. He scores for type, is masculine all through, so well balanced and as sound as they come. Super headed boy with good width between the ears, correct skull to muzzle proportions, strong wedge-shaped muzzle, dark expressive eyes, medium-sized ears of correct set and perfect dentition. He is solid all through with strong neck of moderate length, super rib, level topline, short muscular loin and good tail for set and carriage. Well made both front and rear, standing well at all times and using himself to the max on the move. Excellent coat and presentation. Best Dog & BOB.

PB (8,3)

Lovely class with some very promising young ladies in attendance.

1. Smith’s Javidel Darling Buds of May. 6 mth black/tan and what a delight she is! Of excellent type and feminine throughout, she has the most exquisite head and expression; broad skull, correct proportions, well defined stop, dark expressive eyes, excellent ears for size and set and correct scissor bite. Compact in outline with moderate length of neck, short back, pleasing rib for one so young, muscular loin and tail set on well. Well laid shoulders, nice straight forelegs, excellent feet, well muscled hindquarters with good turn of stifle. Moving true on the down and back and moving out with purpose when viewed in profile. Good quality coat. Best Puppy Bitch & Reserve Best Bitch.

2. Gee’s Watercroft Suzie'Q. 7 mth of different type to the winner and not making her handler’s life easy! Feminine girl and another good one to go over, presenting a super compact outline. Strong neck of moderate length, short level back, rib developing well, muscular loin and tail set on correctly. Quality head with the most delightful expression; good skull to muzzle proportions, well defined stop, strong wedge-shaped muzzle, excellent eye and ears of correct size and set. Another who is soundly constructed with good layback of shoulder, straight forelegs and standing on good feet. Well muscled thighs and good turn of stifle. Moving out well in profile and nice and straight in front but just a fraction wider going away. Quality coat and presentation.

3. Stevenson’s Brickin All For The Best

JB (5,3)

1. Smith’s Javidel Darling Buds of May

2. Macartney’s Ivrig First Bit of Joy. 13 mth who was unlucky to come up against the top quality puppy. This girl has plenty of qualities. Attractive headpiece with nice breadth between her well set ears, well defined stop, strong muzzle although a shade longer, expressive eyes of good colour and correct dentition. Strong neck of moderate length, firm level topline, well sprung rib and muscular loin, but not quite as compact in outline as the winner. Moving out well in profile. Good texture to coat.

OB (3,2)

1. Gee’s Watercroft Saffron. 21 mth bitch. Not quite in full coat but a quality girl nonetheless and so good to go over. She greatly appealed for type, is feminine throughout and so well made. Attractive head of correct proportions, strong wedge-shaped muzzle, dark expressive eyes, excellent ears and correct dentition. Muscular
