MINIATURE LONG HAIRED

I had an honour to judge a lovely entry of this breed. The overall quality was very good to my eyes which was already adopted over the years to the different type of this breed than we have in the FCI countries. Quite a few dogs were low to the ground, and also a number of them should have a longer neck with slightly more elegant leaner head with less stop. Some of the dogs should have a little bit cleaner pasterns with less horizontal wrinkles on them. I really liked my winners.

MPD 1 Paterson’s Duke o Dallas. Has a very good type, not yet ready. A little bit loose topline, otherwise moved well with good front assembly. 2 Palin’s Sanmick Pikcard. A very sound puppy male, pleasing head, nice coat. Just lost on the move on the day.

PD 1 Halsall’s Kiddles Medusa. A very nicely headed young male, excels in his expression. Well balanced all the way through. Moved well. His front should improve. 2 Mee’s Barlaine’s Golden Stricker. Nice head and expression. I would prefer a bit longer neck and upper arm. Good substance to his age. Moved well.

JD 1 Roberts’ Denver Dream Lover. This little gentleman can improve to a big winner later on. Pleasing head, correct anatomy, just the upper arm could be longer. Nice coat. Moved well. 2 McCarthy’s Nagshall All Guns Blazing: Masculine head, but a little bit strong topline. The neck could be longer. Excellent substance, good coat quality. Moved well.

He really pushed my winner, his days can come soon. Res.CC. 2 Broad’s Lyndarlea One of the Boys. A nice masculine male with good substance and balance. Nicely headed. I would prefer slightly longer neck and upper arm on him, otherwise an honest dog.

LD 1 Lockett-Walters’ Metadale Dick Turpin. Lovely male with very nice head and expression. Correct anatomy, good coat texture. Moved well. Only could have a little bit more self confidence temperament-wise to win even more on he day. He won a VERY strong class anyway. 2 Croxford’s Arbroath Lord of Strathspey. Very close to the winner, I just preferred my winner’s head and balance. A true mover, excellent substance. Lovely coat and presentation.
