Critique

PD. (3). 1. Kimber and Bridgen’s, Wychlea Ludo at Stonelight. A nice shaped puppy. Good size for age. Correct head and outline. Moved ok. 2. Gillies’, Kartmel Dark Angel. Another nice puppy but preferred head of winner. Little erratic on the move. 3. McDonald’s, Kismet the Kraken of Clandonald.

JD. (1). 1. Temple’s, Flactem Reflections mit Rimazet. Stood alone in class. Lovely head and pigment. Good length of muzzle. Well up to size. Well angulated rear. Good tail carriage. Moved erratically.

PGD. (4). 1. Hills’, Chilite Blue Chip at Cyfelin. This dog I feel has a good future. Super head and correct shaped eye. Muzzle in proportion to head. Good reach of neck. Excellent body. Good bone. Moved with drive. 2. Serman Tymy Tiec Toc. Another nice dog. Good body shape. Excellent bone, but would like to see more length of muzzle. 3. Fox’s, Oldcharm Black Knight.

LD. (4). 1. Iveson’s, Carive Chunky Monkey. Head of good proportions. Well set ears. Good length of neck. Excellent body. Tail carried well over back. 2. Quayle Karmel Vianden. Similar to winner but preferred head of winner. Good harsh coat. Well presented. Moved well. 3. Johnson’s, Dourhu Dynamic.

OD. (5). 1. Wright’s, Ch. Orion Morror Image. One I have often admired from the ringside. I am sure everything that can be written has been written about the virtues of this dog. He in my view is the blue print of the German Spitz. I had no hesitation in awarding him BD but in the challenge for BOB for some unknown reason his movement let him down. 2. Dickinson and Taylor and Ventura’s, Terendak Bubble Baileys. Another very good quality dog. Head of good proportion. Excellent bone and feet. Well shaped body in profuse coat. Didn’t move too well in this class but when called back in for the challenge he showed what a good mover he really is. RBD. 3. Hill’s, Grovelyn Montgomery.

PB. (4). 1. Johnston’s, Stormavon Silhouette of Dourhu. Lovely wedged shaped head. Good eyes and expression. Good body shape. In good coat. Moved very well. BP. 2. Bradbury’s, Wychlea Aimy Vooh. Another one to watch. Same applies as winner but lost to winner on maturity. A little erratic on the move. 3. Wright’s, Orion Velvet Touch.

JB. (3). 1. Temple’s, Rimazet Zephyr. Sweet expression. Head of good proportions. Well ribbed up. Body short. Strong loin. Excellent tailset but lacking undercoat on the day. Moved ok. 2. Metcalfe’s, Rimazet Co Co Chanel of Flactem. Good shaped head. Nice shaped eye. Excellent body but for some reason does not like male judges and decided not to show.

PGB. (1). 1. Serman’s, Tymy Time and Tide. Nice head, well proportioned muzzle. Good shaped eye but would like to see better ear placement to be ideal. Good strong body but out of coat on the day. Moved well.

LB. (3). 1. Bradbury and Lamming’s, Wychlea Bee Bopalulu. This in my opinion is an excellent German Spitz. Very feminine head. Good length of muzzle, well placed ears. Good length of neck. Beautiful well proportioned body in hard condition. Excellent tailset. Very well presented. Best mover of the day. BB and BOB. 2. Dickinson and Taylor and Ventura and Robinson’s, Terendak Bubble Cream via Polielin. Another quality bitch. Good head and pigmentation. Short coupled body. Tail carried well over back making a pleasing outline. A little erratic on the move. RBB.

OB. (3). 1. Rogerson’s, Nosregor Classic Gold. Lovely head and expression. Good body. Nice topline. Moved well. 2. Gillies’, Kartmel Whirlwind. A pretty bitch. Good size. Good coat. Well proportioned body. A little erratic on the move. Her mind was elsewhere on the day. 3. Serman’s, Shetlock Infatuation among Tymy.
