Minor Puppy Dog

Mrs. P. & Mr. A.J. Poole PANDELLA SPIRIT OF THE NIGHT

Junior Dog

Mrs J Sculac JENUIN MAJOR CONSTELLATION
A lovely dog with a beautiful rear end, lovely face. He could use better feet and a little bit better pasterns but has a nice layback of shoulder.
Open Dog

Mr K & Mrs J & Miss P Hopkins CH AZFLEX SIGN OF THE TIMES
A lovely dog, a little bit heavier face, a little bit more bone. He had a nice tail set, a lovely rear end, a lovely front. Could use a little bit better angles in the shoulder
DOG CHALLENGE #2 & RESERVE #4
The CC winner was a little bit better in the front, a little bit better tight knit. Going around he was really easy on his legs and beautiful natural carriage without pulling into himself. I really enjoyed watching both of these dogs going around and it was very close.
Baby Puppy Bitch

Mrs P. Poole & Mr A.J. Poole PANDELLA MIDNIGHT MYSTERY
Could use a little better angles both ends. She has a beautiful face. She is obviously a young puppy and she lacks confidence. Hopefully that will come out with time. She has a beautiful face and some of the best feet I’ve seen on the entry so far today. I am very hopeful for her future.
Junior Bitch

Miss A Hansen & Mrs P Brown & Mrs N Raby FUNTOSY SECRET AGENT
She is a beautiful type. I love her bone to size. She had nice feet. Her front could be a little better in some respects but is outstanding in others. She has a tremendous depth to her body and everything fits together seamlessly. She has a beautiful rear end, a beautiful topline, a lovely face and she is a pretty bitch going around, sound coming and going.
Intermediate Bitch

Dr D Tudge CH JENUIN MIDNIGHT GODESS
She’s a very nice bitch. She is a beautiful type. I really enjoyed her bone to size. She has a lovely face. She could be a little sounder going away. She tends to be a bit on the ”hocky” side but the overall effect going around is quite lovely. She’s very sound coming at you and has moderate to really nice feet.

#10, the winner of Open bitch is such an elegant and beautiful type. She has many wonderful style features. She has one of the better shoulder laybacks of the group that I’ve seen today.
The second place is a mature bitch that has many wonderful qualities. She is really pretty going around. She has lovely planes to her face and a really lovely tailset.
I loved all the animals that I had in my final breed line up. The bitch that went Best of Breed miniature, (#10), is so elegant and so beautiful and collected going around and just got better as the day went on. The Reserve Challenge winner (#9) was much the same. She just improved over time.
Best Junior
#8. She’s just lovely and she was so collected going around. She carried her tail almost directly upright. Beautiful face and beautiful size to bone. I just loved her.

#15 is an elegant type. Beautiful feet. Lovely going around. Very balanced dog. Nice shoulders that fit well into his body. Nice rear end. Hocks that are perpendicular to the ground.
The second place getter, (#16), is a little less sure of himself. Beautiful angles behind. Could use a little deeper set back on his shoulder.
Both had a lovely face.

Ms L Cook ZARZOU PRIDE N PREJUDICE
#17, just a lovely dog. Wonderful front end assembly. Wonderful rear end. Beautiful feet. Lovely face, beautiful going around. Sound coming and going. Elegant. He is just the full picture.
#19 many of the same qualities as the winning dog, just seemed a little less composed. Not quite as good in the feet and pasterns and going around was sometimes a little more confident, together and using himself well and other times not.
#18, 3rd place is a dog who just really lacked confidence on the day.
They all had lovely faces. They all had lovely features about them.
The 3rd placed dog could just use some time and the confidence would make a huge difference.

Ms K Whiteley & Mr N Humpage CH. KELKA'S FANTASTIC FUTURE (IMP UK)
#23 a lovely dog. Bone to size. Lovely going around .
Both of these dogs I think have a bit of an issue getting collected.
The second placed dog, (#24), has a little more bone. Not quite the feet. He is dramatic going around but was not terribly collected. I think probably with a little more time he would have settled in.
DOG CHALLENGE #20 & RESERVE #23
#20 a lovely balanced dog. Incredibly sound coming and going. Beautiful breed type. I just can’t say enough about him. He’s so easy on his legs and a lovely dog to watch.
My Reserve (#23), is elegant, probably a little higher on leg and really pretty, just wasn’t quite collected going around in that he seemed to throw his rear away and throw his front a little bit from time to time. I think that probably a little more maturity and experience will change that.
Anyway I think that they are both really lovely dogs.
I was happy to have judged them.
Minor Puppy Bitch
26
Miss C.P. Sharpe CAPANASH MISTRESS OF THE DARK
She is a lovely bitch. Really easy on her legs. Obviously immature. She could be a little better in her front assembly. Could be a bit tighter. Her rear end she drives off really well. And I would like to see a little bit higher tailset. But other than that she is really pretty.
Puppy Bitch
27
Ms K Whiteley & Mr N Humpage AGLAIA MORE THAN A DREAM
She is quite an elegant bitch. She has a lovely front assembly. Her rear end is a little not quite in balance with the front end. She could use a little bit higher tailset and the only thing that I find objectionable is that she carries her tail so tightly o her back. It really diminishes the outline going around. But the overall type I’m really impressed with.
Junior Bitch
28
Miss K Chandler STARUS DANCING WITH TH DEVIL
She’s a really pretty bitch. Lovely feet, lovely face, better than average shoulders of the entry I’ve seen today. Could be a little better collected going around but she’s young and hopefully will progress.

#29 is such an elegant outline. Is very collected, easy on her legs. One of the better front assemblies that I’ve seen today. Lovely croup and tailset.
Second place #30 was not nearly as collected. Could use better shoulder placement but had a lovely rear end and tailset. A little maybe too exuberant and didn’t collect herself on the way around the ring but also a lovely bitch.

Mrs J Mackenzie MONTAIRES BEEPBEEP BUSYLINE
He’s quite a remarkable little boy. He’s a lovely size to bone proportion. Reasonable feet. I think his front end assembly, meaning shoulder placement is better than average. He has a lovely rear end and tailset and a wonderful poodley attitude and on top of all that he has a really pretty little face.

#38 He’s a little brown boy, quite a pretty face. Beautiful eye. Decent feet. Better than average shoulders, a nice rear end. Reasonable tailset, could be a titch higher. Lovely going around. Wonderful natural head carriage.
#37 Just a very slight second place as they have many similar qualities. He also has a lovely face. Nice feet. Probably the first puppy is a little bit better in the front. But other than that he is a lovely puppy dog as well.

D Randall PROCLAIM DARK RHAPSODY
He is a little black dog. Wonderful bone to size. He has a very pretty face. Exquisite teeth and bite. He needs a little bit better feet. And although he is confident going around he could have a little bit better natural head carriage. It could just be the day. Overall he is a lovely little dog.

#45. Just a beautiful little dog. I loved the front assembly and the rear end on him. Beautiful expression on his face and he had a lovely way of going. Very very balanced front to rear.
The second, (#44), I could say very truly of the first one. He’s a very similar dog in a lot of ways. I think the first dog is a little bit better I the shoulder, but overall they’re very similar in their look and their approach to their movement. I really love those.
The third dog, (#43), he’s actually a super elegant type. I love the way that he went. He gained more confidence as the class went on. Towards the end he really got himself together. I think that in the beginning he didn’t reach with his front as well. Towards the end he was really working that out.
And generally I was happy with the class.

#49 He’s a lovely little dog. He’s kind of a small dog. I love his bone to size. I wish his Tail was a little more upright but he has a beautiful way of going with a spectacular head carriage and remarkably sound coming and going. He also has a lovely front assembly although he could have a little more depth to his body, but I wouldn’t expect a whole lot more of a dog of his size and stature.
#46 a beautiful dog with a spectacular coat texture. A nice front assembly, a little better in the front in that he has more fill to his chest. They both have real nice tailsets and were beautiful going around. I think that the second place dog lost a little bit of his head carriage but both dogs were really lovely going around the ring.

#53 I just love this dog. I love his bone to size, his space, the proportions of him. He is a very balanced dog front to rear and just his natural carriage going around the ring is just wonderful
#50. An equally lovely dog. He has as many as the same qualities as the first dog. He seemed a little less sure of himself in the beginning but became more so as time went on. He also is very balanced front to rear and lovely going around the ring.
#51. This dog has an amazing depth of body. I loved his coat texture. I loved the amount of body. He was also a balanced dog going around the ring. He lacked a little in the head carriage and that perhaps is something on another day he would possess.
DOG CHALLENGE #53 & RESERVE #49
Just loved this dog as I mentioned earlier. Even though they are different in stature both these dogs possess many of the same qualities. Among them they both have such a beautiful natural way of going, both coming and going and around the ring.
Love them both.

#57 is a lovely brown bitch. Beautiful bone to size, beautiful proportions. Lovely going around the ring.
#54 had one of the better fronts in the class. Also very balance front to rear, Lovely face. Beautiful going around. Could use more confidence.
#55 in third was a little bit straighter in the front but not distractingly so and was balanced. Also had a lovely face and many lovely features. This one I think as well could use more confidence going around the ring.
But it was a lovely class.

#62 Lovey bitch, lovely features. Pretty face. Could be a little strong in the face but the expression is lovely.
#63. Beautiful face. I love the bone to size on all the dogs in this class but most especially these first two.
And in third place, (#61), probably the prettiest face of the three wasn’t quite as collected going around but had lovely angles lovely front, lovely front and rear assembly. Wasn’t quite as collected but seemed to be more so as the group was moved later on.
All in all a really lovely class.

Gail Stynes Mcilrath JENUIN TABLOID ROMANCE
Lovely bitches. The first place winner is a little more substantial bitch. Lovely balance. Lovely front end. Beautiful features to her face. Very collected going around. Sound coming and going.
The second, (#64) is a tad smaller. Beautiful make and shape. Lovely going around the ring. She’s a little bit less substantial. She’s not quite as filled in the front but beautiful going around.
I think the deal breaker in the end was that the second place bitch let down a little bit and the first place bitch started moving with more confidence. It could easily have gone the other direction.
These are two really outstanding bitches.

#66 Quite a pretty little bitch. Beautiful feature. Nice balance, lovely lovely natural carriage going around the ring and sound coming and going.
#68 in the beginning was a little less confident but became more confident as time went on. Lovely features, pretty face, nice balance angle wise front to rear.
The same is true for #67 the third place, but I think this one was possibly a little better in the front assembly front to rear. Could use maybe a titch more tailset but had a really confident way of going and carried herself well.
All in all it was a really nice class.
BITCH CHALLENGE #65 & RESERVE #64
#65 I have already said quite a bit about her. She was very steady. I love her bone to size proportion and her balance.
The Reserve #64 is lovely herself. They have many commonalities. I think that #64 is a little more petite and could use a little more fil in her body but her carriage going around the ring is just exquisite.

#55 in third was a little bit straighter in the front but not distractingly so and was balanced. Also had a lovely face and many lovely features. This one I think as well could use more confidence going around the ring.
But it was a lovely class.

The only one in her class. She was a really cute little bitch. Had a wonderful attitude. She’s less in the angles but very balanced. She was lovely going around. A really nice bitch.

#62 Lovey bitch, lovely features. Pretty face. Could be a little strong in the face but the expression is lovely.
#63. Beautiful face. I love the bone to size on all the dogs in this class but most especially these first two.
And in third place, (#61), probably the prettiest face of the three wasn’t quite as collected going around but had lovely angles lovely front, lovely front and rear assembly. Wasn’t quite as collected but seemed to be more so as the group was moved later on.
All in all a really lovely class.

Lovely bitches. The first place winner is a little more substantial bitch. Lovely balance. Lovely front end. Beautiful features to her face. Very collected going around. Sound coming and going.
The second, (#64) is a tad smaller. Beautiful make and shape. Lovely going around the ring. She’s a little bit less substantial. She’s not quite as filled in the front but beautiful going around.
I think the deal breaker in the end was that the second place bitch let down a little bit and the first place bitch started moving with more confidence. It could easily have gone the other direction.
These are two really outstanding bitches.

Mrs C Woodward A/CH DOOTWA SINIFUL SATISFACTION
#66 Quite a pretty little bitch. Beautiful feature. Nice balance, lovely lovely natural carriage going around the ring and sound coming and going.
#68 in the beginning was a little less confident but became more confident as time went on. Lovely features, pretty face, nice balance angle wise front to rear.
The same is true for #67 the third place, but I think this one was possibly a little better in the front assembly front to rear. Could use maybe a titch more tailset but had a really confident way of going and carried herself well.
All in all it was a really nice class.
BITCH CHALLENGE #65 & RESERVE #64
#65 I have already said quite a bit about her. She was very steady. I love her bone to size proportion and her balance.
The Reserve #64 is lovely herself. They have many commonalities. I think that #64 is a little more petite and could use a little more fil in her body but her carriage going around the ring is just exquisite.
