KLEIN Small entry, 17 dogs. Mixed type and wide variation in quality and temperament. Many dogs had attractive heads and good coats. The most usual problem seemed to be in body propositions and height of legs.

PD (2) 1 Chilite Indian Chief, 10 months, correct propositions, alert puppy expression, regular movements, promising coat quality. BP. 2 Ulmarra´s Hot Toddy, 9 months, strong puppy with longer body, expressive head, self-confident showing and tail carriage, moves still close.
JD (2) 1 Cyfelin Jack Frost at Ahlenagen, 17 months, strong and square, correct conformation and movement, excellent masculine head and expression. 2 Tymy the Woodman, 12 months, bigger in size and longer in body, needs more angulation in front and to settle down in front movement.
PGD (3) 1 Printzagems Verve, excellent type and size, typical head and expression, stylish neck, moved well, good coat. RBD. 2 Paulgeo Devon Black Diamond, very good type, correct quarters, sharp expression, low tail carriage, undisciplined behaviour.
