BEST OF BREED : BREEZE Mrs S C Ch Gumshoe A Touch Of Frost By Salena

 

Judge: Mrs M A Micklethwaite

 

I found hind movement quite poor & lack of muscle in hindquarters. A number moved very close behind & where are the close to body elbows. Some flat feet. Please do not forget construction.

PD (2)

1 Harrison’s Knowlespring Jail House Roc at Trenson, nicely bodied cream, lovely strong masculine head, well muscled quarters. Needs to tighten in front & strengthen in pads. BP;

2 Samuel’s Skyelander Wee Man of Storr, 7 months, drop ear, nicely bodied, good front, neck & shoulder, moved & showed nicely, should do well.

JD (0).

PGD (3)

3 good dogs.

1 Samuel’s Glordindel Son Of Angus, black, great length of body, level topline, masculine head, in super coat, soundest mover in class;

2 Hawkes & Mason’s Maridale Blueys Beach, very good head, neck & shoulder, rib goes well back, strong topline. Would like more drive behind;

3 King’s Celticbridge Moonshine.

LD (2)

1 Woodhead’s Knowlespring Sunday Best, grey, very well balanced, lovely head, well fringed ears, in full coat, moved OK;

2 Kendrick’s Jeraro Rhapsody In Blue, black, handles well, well sprung rib goes well back. Moved close behind.

OD (4)

1 Breeze’s Ch Gumshoe A Touch Of Frost, black in super hard condition, lovely strong masculine head, well placed ears, balanced throughout, rib well back, level topline, presented well. CC & BOB;

2 Miller’s Ch Feorlig Give Me A Reason, similar type, nice dog, well matured. Not quite so tight in front as 1 but moved & showed well. RCC;

3 Harrison’s Gumshoe The Riot Act for Trenson.

PB (1)

1 White’s Knowlespring Your’e Nicked by Gumshoe, cream, very good body, neat feminine head, nicely balanced, very good bone. Needs to settle.

JB (1)

1 King’s Celticbridge Spring Magic, quality cream to handle, good head, strong jaw, big teeth, moved out well, quite promising. Needs to grow a coat.

PGB (4,2)

1 Miller’s Feorlig Take Me Or Leave Me, black, lovely front, neck & shoulder, rib well back, very good body, good double coat, well boned, with time should make up;

2 Breeze’s Salena Secret Passion, ran 1 close, not quite the front of 1. Good quarters, moved well.

LB (4)

1 Curtis’ Tsuki Solastar of Brakemill, cream, lovely size, very good neck & shoulder, quality head, strong jaw, excellent bite, well placed ears fully furnished, moved well with plenty of drive behind. CC;

2 Miller’s Feorlig Something Wicked, black, not quite fluid movement of 1. Very good bitch in very good coat, well constructed.

OB (3)

1 Woodhead’s Knowlespring She Knows, quality cream, moves well, lovely feminine head, good eye placement, very good coat & well furnished, good body. RCC;

2 Bailey & Hansel’s Ch Silisia Firenze, black of quality, lovely head & eye, firm topline. Moved well in front, rather close behind. Good strong double coat;
