1. Pearson’s Crosscop It’s Only Just Begun for Jenarta 10 months – Another lovely puppy with potential. He was so well balanced and presented a good outline when stacked. Good shoulders, well rounded ribbing and turn of stifle. Moved well for one so young. When he matures he should do well.

2. Rihoy’s Danton Love Letter to Sunnerset - 8 months – Taller than 1. A bit fidgety on the table to start but did settle. Pretty head, good reach of neck, adequate ribbing, hind angulation was acceptable. She needs to tighten all through which will come with maturity. Needs time.

She put up a strong challenge for BOB and on another day she will most certainly get there. Pleased to award her BB.
