V (1) 1 Mayger’s Woolsocks Black Satin, 11 years young, a little on the plump side but saying this she has a lovely head & expression, correct shoulders, well made quarters & when it comes to moving she is sound & moves out as though she is many years younger, certainly fit for life. PD(2,1a) 1 Ergis’ Siouxline Flynn Rider, red dog, nice head & expression, strong neck leading into well placed shoulders, firm topline, well made body, good quarters that he uses to his advantage on the move. BP. JD (3,1) 1 Paget & Carroll’s Bronia Valente of Marvale, a very promising b/t, very nice head & expression, length of neck & shoulders & upper of correct angles, nice length of ribbing, well made & muscled quarters, he moves soundly with a no tummy tapping. RBD; 2 Shiflet’s GB Sir Mose Knows, very smart dog, well balanced throughout, moved soundly, the handler needs to pay more attention on presenting this dog as he is a very nice dog to go over. PGD (3) 1 Jones’ Royaldach’s Rockin Robin, shaded red dog, well balanced with good shoulder placement, would like a better angle of upper arm, good body & with good quarters, moved soundly; 2 Jones’ Cwmdarhian Super Trooper, good head & expression, slightly forward in shoulder & steep upper arm, ample quarters, moved soundly; 3 Ball’s Glyndwr Darn N Deceptive. OD (3,1) 1 Sith & Connor’s Ch Bronia Gregorio, b/t male, had everything I was looking for, in profile he shows elegance, lovely head & kind expression, correct reach of neck leading into well laid shoulders & correct angle of upper arm, good ribbing & length of body finishing in good angulation, on the move he covers the ground & moves soundly, a pleasure to go over. BD & BOB; 2 Punter’s Welcumen Guinness, I would say he is at that between stage, maturity will see a different dog, nicely balanced & moved soundly.
PB (5) In this class each puppy was at various stages of development a nice class to judge. 1 Oakley & Person’s Ardenrun Valentines Day, r/br just 6 months, I fell for this young bitch on my first look & she did not disappoint me on the table, nicely put together with correct shoulders & upper arm, well made body & super hindquarters, moved with drive & knows how to use her construction, against the puppy dog she lacked the firmness on the move. BPB; 2 Reed’s Deercroft Sumer Sernade, promising young bitch, lovely shape, well balanced throughout & moved soundly; 3 Scott’s Wolferow Mary Quant. JB (6) 1 Paget & Carroll’s Bronia Vittoria of Marvale, a quality red bitch who I could tell is not the easiest bitch to show has a mind of her own. Lovely head & expression, good reach of neck with well placed shoulders & angle of upper arm, good ribbing with strongly made quarters, moves with drive & soundly, pleased to award her BB; 2 Salisbury’s Brocklewood Black Rose, a quality bitch who has good balanced throughout with good angles fore & aft, moved soundly with good drive; 3 Scott’s Wolferlow Anthea. OB (6,2) 1 Ergis’ Ch Siouxline Aurora, a lovely red bitch with good head & expression, well placed shoulders, good ribs & body with strong quarters, covers the ground & is sound.
