Thanks to Border Union for the invitation to judge and to the exhibitors for their entries.

PD (2,0) 1 Dradys Indiko Fire and Ice. A raw baby but correct for his age. Typical head with excellent pigment and almond eye. Balanced and well made in front and behind with oval front. Well ribbed with good top and underline. Good bone and bunchy feet. In good coat and condition. Moved soundly holding his shape. BPD. 2 Findlays Hanburydax Life of Riley. Balanced head and correct eye, would like stronger underjaw. Good neck and ok in shoulder and upper arm. Well ribbed with enough length of keel. Held topline well and enough angles behind. Just needs more confidence and to get it together on the move. In good coat.

JD (3,0) 1 Dalton and Beachs Ch Zarcrest Red In The Room JW. A quality dog who was so good to go over and really uses himself so well on the move holding his shape. Masculine, conical head with dark almond eye and very good pigment. Clean reachy neck into well laid shoulder and upper arm of good length meaning his legs were well under him. Good pro sternum and length to keel. Well ribbed back to short loin with good turn of stifle and parallel hocks. Strong bone and neat feet. On the move he has reach and drive and is sound up and back holding his shape. In great coat and condition. Pleased to award him the DCC. 2 Thomsons Rivandell Sirius Black. Ok in head and dark almond eye. Could have a little more neck. Balanced in angulation. Touch longer in body than ideal. Strong bone and tight feet. Correct topline and croup. Used himself well on the move. Would like better tail carriage. In great coat and condition.  3 Cameron, Cameron and Sutherlands Kenleap Fire Power

YD (2,0) 1 Morrin and Barbis Zilcan Vanilla Ice For Arlatdax. Typey head with good pigment. Ok in neck and shoulder but would prefer more length of upper arm. Oval in front and well ribbed. Overall good shape and proportions. Well angulated behind. Held his topline well on the move and used himself well. In good coat and condition. 2 Cameron, Cameron and Sutherlands Kenleap Fire Power. Different in type and more continental looking overall. Clean head and dark eye. Well laid shoulder and return of upper arm. Good ribbing and short loin. Strong bone and tight feet. He was to big for me and wasn’t cooperating on the move today so hard to assess properly.

GD (3,0) 1 Morrin and Barbis Zilcan Vanilla Ice For Arlatdax. Seen previously. 2 Thomsons Rivandell Sirius Black. Seen previously. 3 Kasprowicz Wishadax’s Blonde Showman Daniello

PGD (2,0) 1 Morrin and Barbis Code Red Again at Arlatdax. Strong head with dark almond eye. Good to go over and well off for angles. Well filled front and correct ribbing and body proportions. Strong well boned legs and compact feet. Sound on the move when settled. Good topline and well handled. Wouldn’t want any bigger. 2 Kasprowicz Wishadax’s Blonde Showman Daniello. Head of good length but would like stronger underjaw. Dark eye of almond shape. Enough neck and balanced in angulation. Well ribbed back and short in loin with good overall body proportions. Would prefer tighter feet, more weight and was a little out of coat which spoiled the overall picture. Looked good in profile but a little narrow up and back.

OD (4,1) 1 Dradys Tolberg Blach Adder at Indiko. Balanced head of good length and shape with dark eye. Ok in neck and shoulder, would prefer upper arm to be slightly longer. Ideal body proportions with good ground clearance, top and underline. Well ribbed, compact with short loin. Good first and second thigh. Strong bone and bunchy feet. A touch narrow in front but very good behind and used himself well in profile holding a nice shape. In good coat and condition. RDCC. 2 Kasprowicz Wishadax’s Blonde Showman Daniello. Seen previously. 3 Cameron, Cameron and Sutherlands Kenleap Fire Power

PB (4,0) 1 Lockett-Walters Ralines Rose Are Red. A beautiful quality puppy who must have a great future ahead. Beautiful feminine head and dark eye with good pigment. Textbook confirmation and ideal body proportions with well filled front. Strong bone and tight feet. Well ribbed, compact and totally balanced. She had spot on top and underline and was sound on the move holding her outline. In great coat and condition. Considered for higher awards but just needs a little more time. BPB and BPIB. Pleased she went on PG4. 2 Bells Indiko A Touch of Cream. Another lovely puppy who should have a bright future. Long tapered head, dark almond eye. Clean neck and well made in shoulder and upper arm, well ribbed with good top and underline. A touch longer in body at the moment but will fill her frame in time. Good behind with enough bone and compact feet. Sound and used herself well on the move holding her shape. In lovely coat. 3 Websters Indiko Eternal Flame

JB (2,0) 1 Holtoms Rivandell Nymphadora. A bitch that needs more time and confidence but has it all there. Typical in head and eye. Well made, compact and balanced. Oval front and well boned legs and tight feet. Good ribbing and length to keel. Correct top and underline. Sound up and back and uses herself well in profile. In good coat. 2 Kasprowicz Daniello Golden Eyes. This bitch was compact and had good overall body proportions. She had good length and balance to her head but I would prefer more strength to her muzzle. She needed more strength in topline and was to low to ground which affected her on the move. Less weight would also improve her overall picture.

YB (3,0) 1 Dunhills Black Velvet Deelite at Gellijam. Good head and dark eye but eye looked a little round. Clean lengthy neck, well made both in front and behind. Good ribbing and short loin. Good width throughout and had strength behind. Sound enough up and back and used what she has well in profile. In great coat and condition. 2 Heathers Ravensbeech Florentine Whiteorchard JW. Typey head, dark eye with good pigment. Shoulder laid well with good upper arm Well filled in front and good length to keel and ribbed will back to short loin. Good first and second thigh. Topline rises a little when moving. Sound enough with good coat. 3 Morrin and Barbis Zilcan Magic Moments at Arlatdax

GB (3,0) 1 Dunhills Black Velvet Deelite at Gellijam. Seen previously. 2 Findlays Hanburydax Fleur Jac. Good balanced head and conical in shape. Almond eye. Good neck and well laid shoulder, upper arm of good length. Well boned legs and tight feet. Enough ribbing with good length to keel. Had good width behind and overall good proportions. Not as precise on the move as 1.  3 Morrin and Barbis Zilcan Magic Moments at Arlatdax

PGB (2,1) 1 Morrin and Barbis Zilcan Magic Moments at Arlatdax. Ok in head and eye. Good overall proportions. Would prefer better shoulder and upper arm and lacked a little fill in front. Well ribbed, with short loin and well angulated behind. Tail well set and carried. Enough bone and tight enough feet. Needs more weight. In great coat and had good drive on the move.

LB (1,0) 1 Holtom Rivandell Osha. Quality bitch who was on form today. Typical head of good length and balance. Almond, dark eye with very good pigment. Enough neck with good shoulder, just enough length to upper arm. Correct fore chest and well ribbed back, with spot on top and underline. Compact with good proportions and shape. Balanced quarters with her front with parallel hocks.  Sound with good reach and drive holding her shape and in great coat and condition. RBCC.

OB (4,1) 1 Walters Ralines Proud Mary. Took my eye straight away for her overall shape, balance and proportions and I wasn’t disappointed when going over her. Feminine head of good length and balance. Dark expressive eye, lovely clean neck into really good shoulders and upper arm with neat elbows. Well filled in front fitting neatly into the crook of her well boned legs with tight feet. She was well ribbed with thick, strong loins and ideal top and underline. Hammy quarters of good width and angulation. Well set and carried tail. On the move it was easy for her with reach and drive and used herself so well with good carriage. Just the right amount of coat and in great condition. Very pleased to award her the BCC and BOB which made her up. Congratulations.  2 Heathers Tolberg Heres to The Future with Ravensbeech JW. Good honest bitch with lots to like. A touch longer in body but well ribbed and had no weakness anywhere and held a good topline. Feminine head with good eye and pigment. Ok in neck and well made in front and behind. Strong bone and compact feet. Could have a little more weight. Moved well with soundness and in lovely well-presented coat. 3 Dradys Tolberg Cream Surprise at Indiko
