Limit Dog.

1 Bouwhuis & Hamilton’s   Lovall Adam at Ladyleigh.     
A male of pleasing size with everything in the right proportion. Coat texture good and of the correct length. Pleasing head and expression with good broad mouth with correct bite, piercing dark eyes and well place neat ears Strong front with well-boned legs the correct four finger width apart. Neat tight feet. Enough length of neck leading to well laid back shoulders and a level top line with good depth of rib. Well-set tail and powerful hindquarters allowing him to drive in an easy flowing stride. Pleased to award him the dog RCC.

Open Dog

1 Dale’s Phoenix Superbia Lynsto. (imp Pol)
 A very showy dog of pleasing size and proportions. Excellent quality and depth of coat. Strong well boned head, good broad mouth with correct bite. Very black nose and alert dark eyes and neat well-placed ears. Strong powerful neck for the size dog leading into very neat front. Well laid back shoulders, of good depth of rib and strong level top line. Tail right on top leading down to correctly proportioned powerful hindquarter. Moves true both front and back. An excellent example of a mature male of correct size and build.    Dog C.C. and B.I.Show.

2 Bacuzzi’s Zackshine Farrok Bulsara (ATCBA847761TA)
A well set dog of slightly heavier build. Construction good, masculine head, strong neck leading down to good shoulder set. Moved true front and rear, just lacked the exuberance and energy of 1.

Minor Puppy Bitch.

1 Regan’s Zackshine Grace Kelly (ATCBB388431TA)
I was surprised to see such a young bitch puppy that had travelled so far. Although she still has a lot of developing to do she has a pleasing feminine head with everything correct. Neat front, good length of neck, level top line, and correct tail placement.  Coat growing well. She is a lovely baby, but I would have liked to have seen a little more of the playfulness that we are used to seeing from our young puppies in this country.

Puppy Bitch

1 Thomson’s Hillcloud Echowave by Ashgate.
A feminine little lady with a lot of lovely attributes. Very pretty head.  Correct mouth, bone well-built up under lovely dark eyes. Enough reach of neck leading to good shoulder set. Level top line with nice depth of rib for a bitch of this age. Tail on top. Excellent and abundant quality of double coat. Moved with drive and energy. B.P. in Show.

Junior bitch

1 Bradbury’s Fourastay Flower Power.
Just over a year old and developing well. Superb coat of correct length and texture. Pleasing head, correct mouth, lovely dark eyes and neat ears. Good length of neck, leading into a lovely straight front.  Front legs well-boned, neat tight feet.  Well laid back shoulders and level top line. Hind legs well-boned with good muscle and angulation. Moved really well.

Yearling Bitch

1 Fryer’s &Kanasova’s Gin and Tonic Sunshine Celebration
This is a very beautiful young bitch. Correct in every respect and really well presented. Very feminine expression. Beautiful head, excellent bite, alert dark eyes watching everything and neat well-placed ears. Good length of neck and tight front.  Well laid back shoulder.  Depth of rib directly in proportion to her body size. Level top line with tail on top. Well shaped hind quarters with good angulation. Moved with energy and drive.  Really well presented young lady.

Graduate Bitch

1 Bradbury’s Fourastay Flower Power.

Limit Bitch

1 Storey’s Lizandycris the New Hope for Nossimp.
I have watched this bitch develop over time and have been delighted to watch her progress into the bitch she is now. She was a pleasure to go over and my hands really confirmed what I have seen develop over time. Another bitch of correct size and proportion. Good head with lovely alert dark eyes. Correct mouth, well-boned skull and well-placed neat ears. Enough length of neck to compliment a well laid back shoulder set. Really neat straight front. Good depth of rib and level top line.  Tail right up on top. Strong well angulated hind quarters.  Moved with drive and energy. Delighted to award her the Bitch C.C., which I later learnt made her up to champion. Bitch C.C.

2 Bouwhuis Llovall All By Myself
A slightly heavier young lady but with all the correct attributes.  Excellent head, neck and good shoulder set leading to level top line, with good tail placemen.  Well set hind quarters.  She moved really true both coming and going.  Excellent quality coat.

3 Crozier’s Dalskairth Glamis Girl.

Open bitch

1 Smith’s Lingbeck Hold the Dream.
This is another bitch that I have enjoyed watching develop over the years. Superb well boned head. Excellent mouth, good stop, dark eyes and neat ears.  Enough length of neck leading into an excellent shoulder set.  Straight front with well boned front legs. Good depth of rib for a bitch. Excellent quality coat. Level top line, tail set correct. Well angulated hind legs allowing her to move with drive.  Bitch R.C.C.

2 Fryer’s Hopecharm Northern Light.
Another beautifully constructed bitch, immaculately presented which excelled in every respect.  I would expect nothing less from this kennel. Very unlucky to meet 1 today.
