MINIATURE LONG HAIRED

J. (4). 1. Allen and Dick’s, Auchans Thistle Dubh Guid. Very promising 6 months old black and tan male. Liked his head and eye. Well laid shoulders. Good length of rib and low hocks. Well presented flat coat. Moved soundly both ways. BP, BD, BOS and PG4. McDonnell’s, Larkhund Eye Connection. Another nice youngster. Neat and feminine. Liked her head. Level topline, well attended feet. Sound moving. Just preferred length of neck on the winner. 3. Allen and Dick’s, Auchans Thistle Dubh Mee.

OD. (1). 1. Hamilton’s, Ir Ch. Ardlochan Sableson. 6 years old shaded red. Cobby little dog with nice head. Level topline. Could be tighter in elbow and have better feet, but sound on the move. RBD.

OB. (3). 1. Goddard’s, Ch. Minard Krystal Darque. A pleasure to judge such a stunning bitch in super coat and body condition. I could have watched her move all day. So sound and free moving and still showing her socks late in the day to take Group 3. BB, BOB and G3. 2. Hunphries’, Rossglen Romonette To Avonlea. A nice type of bitch. Feminine head with dark eye. Good set of shoulders and a level topline. Sound coming and going. Would prefer a shade more angulation behind. Well presented coat. RBB.
