MINIATURE SMOOTH HAIRED

 Same applies as with the Smooths, my first impression of this variety is backends. Exhibits would look OK from side elevation but going away from you some were either very loose from the hocks down or toeing in badly. My main winners however had no such problems. I was looking for balance, a good reach of neck so they can readily get their nose to the ground, excellent front assembly coupled with lovely quarters – I do like a lovely rounded rump, this makes for a hound that can work all day without tiring, a good length and depth of ribbing to protect all their vital organs and, of course, a lovely topline.

MPD (4) 1 Herrington’s Kathington Coeur De Lion, lovely in all quarters, most appealing head, good reach of neck, well laid shoulders, good topline, excellent coming and going, keeps equal distance apart; 2 Williams’ Cwmdarhian To Hot To Handle, nice head and expressions, good topline, good coming and going; 3 Salisbury’s Barratini Aston Martin.


PD (5,1a) Two lovely babies. 1 Coxon’s D’Arisca Speed Dating, excellent head, neck and shoulders, good topline, nicely rounded rump, keeps equal distance apart coming and going. BPD; 2 Shutt’s Just Dreaming at Donadoon, lovely in all quarters. Coat just not in condition. Most appealing head, balanced all through; 3 Mead’s Filbyflyer Country Life with Minimead.

JD (3,1) 1 Yeoman’s Klynerbyner Vim And Vigour, good balance throughout, lovely head and expression, good reach of neck, well laid shoulders, good topline, well rounded rump, keeps equal distance apart coming and going; 2 Callow’s Garthorne Top Gear, preferred front on 1. Good head, neck and topline. Unbalanced rear movement.

YD
(2) 1 MacDonald’s Bensarks The Midas Touch, a nice one, lovely head neck and shoulders, good topline, length and depth of ribbing, good pro-sternum; 2 Sim’s Little Wizzard of Kelmbeck, good head. Would prefer more neck. Good topline.

PGD (6,3) 1 Watkinson’s Manakoora Hawaiian Laysan, good length of neck, well laid shoulders, good topline, nice run off of rump; 2 Watkinson’s Mankoora Hanapepe Valley, nice head. Would prefer more neck for balance. Good depth of ribbing; 3 Little Wizzard of K. LD (4,1) 1 Melbourne’s Melriding Jerome, liked this one a lot, lovely in all quarters, most appealing expression, good length of neck, well laid shoulders, lovely pro-sternum, good topline, moved around the ring with purpose; 2 Prittchard’s Hannamouse Dande-Lion, appealing expression, good neck, shoulders and topline; 3 Shutt’s Black Passion of Donadoon.

OD
(4,2) 1 Dunn’s Barratini Luke Lively at Ashbridge, lovely, beautifully balanced, good head and expression, good reach of neck, flowing into well laid shoulders, lovely topline, length and depth of ribbing, lovely pro-sternum, excellent hind angulation, comes towards you true and goes away keeping equal distance apart, really uses the ring. CC, was told that this is his third giving him his title; 2 Melbourne’s Melriding De Lafayette, one I liked, lovely balance, appealing head and expression, good length of neck, well laid shoulders, good pro-sternum, uses hocks, keeps equal distance apart coming and going. RCC.

MPB
(4,2) 1 Melbourne’s Melriding Creole Lady, delightful baby, lovely head and expression, good length of neck flowing into well laid shoulders, lovely pro-sternum, good length and depth of ribbing, good topline, excellent hindquarters, lovely feet, really used the ring to her advantage. BP and RCC; 2 Williams’ Dream Maker, lovely in front. Hind movement needs to settle. Good topline, head neck and shoulders.

PB (7) Difficult class, three lovely bitches. 1 Coxon’s D’Arisca Barratini Bouquet, lovely head, neck and shoulders, good length and depth of ribbing, lovely pro-sternum, good topline, keeps equal distance apart coming and going, good feet; 2 Melbourne and Holdsworth’s Barratini Hubble Bubble at Melriding, one I liked a lot, not much to choose between these 2, all of the above applies, could change places another day; 3 Metcalfe’s Metadale Flirtie Gertie.

JB
(8,2) A lovely class of bitches. 1 Hunt’s Carpaccio Royal Parade, most appealing head, good length of neck flowing into well laid shoulders, excellent pro-sternum, good length and depth of ribbing, lovely hind angulation, comes towards you true and goes away keeping equal distance apart; 2 Hyatt’s Dovestream Enchanted Ruby, good head, neck, shoulders, topline, good length and depth of ribbing, nice rounded rump; 3 Mead’s Minimead Miz Lucy Lou.

CC, BOB and G4; 2 Lombardelli D’Arisca From Dawn Till Dusk at Kelmbeck, good head and neck, well laid shoulders, good pro-sternum, good topline, nice rounded rump; 3 Prittchard’s Hannamouse Bronte.
