  1. Scholes’ GOLDENHICKS CHURCHILL AT ROSSGILDE

Masculine headed pup without coarseness with dark pigmentation. He excels in front construction giving him the required reach. He has beautiful depth of body and good spring of rib for his age and carries his topline on the level. He has a strong rear which gave him the drive to match his front reach. Sound on the move, well handled. BPD

Junior Dog – 4 entries, 3 absent

  1. Randall’s KELVERQUEST PORTLAND BILL

Very impressive young dog with well proportioned masculine head, expressive eye and dark pigmentation. He appealed for his type and balance with his strong well made front and depth of body. Good width over the rear, holding a firm topline on the move with level tail carriage. Moves as he is made with good reach in front, drive and extension from the rear. Just needs to mature on in the body. I see he is sired by my BIS!

  1. Fenn’s CHALKSVILLE BARREGARROW AT JANDEBURN JW

He has a good tail set and carries it level. Moves sound and steady but would like to see some more animation

  1. Joy’s SHARDENELL JUST LIKE THAT

This boy fills the eye for breed type and balance. He has a good masculine head with dark pigmentation, excels in front construction and depth of brisket. He is strong in the quarters which shows in his movement, accurate foot fall and extending both ends which secured this class for him. Needs to mature on in body but he is still a young lad so best yet to come. RBD

  1. Main’s GWYNGALA GROUP CAPTAIN

This boy is of good type with good balance, has an appealing head with dark pigmentation. He has a good layback of shoulder and length in upper arm which gave him the required reach on the move. His body is mature with plenty of depth and his ribs are deep and well sprung. He is erratic on the move today which made him untidy both ways

  1. Bawden’s GOLDLEIGH MACLOUD AT DARTHILL JW

This dog appealed immensely. He flowed from nose to tail with everything in the right place of correct proportions. Grand, masculine head, very expressive eyes and dark pigmentation. Found his front a joy to handle, his mature body has deep ribs, well sprung and extends well back. He has a strong loin with plenty of width over his quarters, his tail is set on correctly and his carriage level as required. His movement was sounds with accurate footfall and extends as he is made. His style developed the more he moved. Delighted to award him BD & BIS in good company

  1. Lewis’ LOVEHAYNE BIJOU AMONG FAIRWINDS

Wow, what a promising puppy, really fell for her. She has a feminine head with expressive eyes and dark pigmentation. She is beautifully made in front with great depth for her age and has the matching backend with lovely thickness to thigh, to give the balance that so appealed to me. On the move she is sound both ways with precise side gait. She holds a perfect topline and her tail set and carriage is text book. She is half sister to my Best bitch and by my Res Best Dog and is similar type. BPB, RBB & BPIS

  1. Gayler’s CAROLAKE REMEMBER ME JW

I have judged this bitch twice already as a puppy and have done her well including a PG1. She is a lovely unexaggerated type with typical feminine head and dark pigmentation. She is well made in front with lovely depth; her body is well ribbed back but would like to see her carry a little more weight to advantage. As sound as a pound!
