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.

lovely in all quarters. Coat just not in condition. Most appealing head,

neck and shoulders, good topline, length and depth of ribbing, good pro-sternum;

PGD (6,3) 1 Watkinson’s Manakoora Hawaiian Laysan, good length

beautifully balanced, good head and expression, good reach of neck, flowing into
