Klein

PD (2) 1. Trendle’s Lusam Neat N’Tidy. 8 mth blue. This boy presents a balanced, square outline with correct length of neck, excellent tail set and carriage. Correctly proportioned head with pleasing expression, scissor bite and good eye colour. Rather narrow in forechest right now which affects front movement. 2. Blake’s Rokizz Hephaestus. 9 mth black. This youngster is longer cast than the winner but still has lots to like. Good head proportions with dark, expressive eye. Well developed forechest with straight forelegs. Moves well in profile. Topline not his fortune.

JD (1) 1. Clarke’s Stonelight Richochet. 14 mth gold. Promising youngster who presented a balanced outline with correct length of neck, level topline, short loin and high set tail. Well ribbed up. Good head proportions with dark expressive eye. Correct mouth. Good moving boy particularly in rear and when viewed in profile. Very well handled.

LD (2) 1. Morgan’s Dare to Dream of Ahlen. 2 yr old black. Difficult class but this boy won on his overall balance. Short couple with good neck, firm level topline and high set tail. Well proportioned headpiece with dark expressive eyes. Correct mouth. Good feet. Excellent coat. Moved well when viewed from all angles. 2. Trendle’s Lusam Crispin Blunt. 4 yr old black. Longer cast than winner. Correct length of neck, nice forechest and excellent high set tail. Good eye for both colour and shape. Well constructed forequarters giving rise to true front action. Super side gait.

OD (5,1) 1. Andrew’s Porterble Sirius Black from Runfold. 2 yr old black. This quality boy headed a very strong class and I have to say he ticked all the boxes for me! He excels for balance and outline with super clean neck, firm level topline and excellent high set tail. Just loved his head and expression; well proportioned with dark expressive eyes of correct set. Correct mouth. Well constructed throughout giving rise to brisk, effortless movement. Excellent quality coat. My choice for Best Dog and later BOB. 2. Chambers’ Ch Nosregor Hot Shot for Musique ShCM. 6 yr old brown who was very close up to the winner. Another who presents a beautifully balanced outline with correct length of neck, super firm topline and excellent tail set. Super head of correct proportions. Perfect eyes for shape, set and colour giving rise to beautiful expression. Profuse coat of excellent quality. Faultless movement. Reserve Best Dog. 3. Highmoor’s Ch Kartmel Legolas

Loved her head and expression; dark eye of correct shape and colour, good ear set. Excellent width and depth of chest. Profuse, off-standing coat. Wonderful temperament. Certainly wouldn’t know she was the age she is! Reserve Best Bitch.

PB (2,1) 1. Kettle-White’s Lusam Spic N’Span. 8 mth orange sable. Liked the outline on this puppy being short-coupled and balanced. Correct length of neck, firm level topline and good tail set.
