Critique
German Spitz
Many thanks for what was a nice entry both in terms of number and quality. The atmosphere around the ring was very sporting and all dogs were clean and well put down. I thought that both my BOB winners were of superb type and was pleased to see my Mittel BOB shortlisted in a strong Utility group. None were clearly oversized.
Klein
Veteran Dog. 1. Lusam Cheeky Boy. Up to size male who I wouldn’t want any bigger. However, he is of very correct overall proportions. Correct wedge-shaped head with correct stop, nice eye of good shape and nicely set. Good pigmentation and best of ears. Good bone. Nice small foot. Very sound in both directions. Good coat texture.
Puppy Dog. 1. Fecimus We're On The Ball. Very smart black. Won here on his overall shape, balance and lovely tail set. Good head and expression with good eye and ear. Nicely made through. Good neck of sufficient length into well placed shoulders. Good topline and lovely tail set. Enough width to his front. Level topline and short coupled. Carrying a fraction too much coat for my preference. Moved well. 2. Optimus Prime Gentle Barbarian at Rozibon (Imp Cze). Immature brown but with many attributes. Pleasing typical head with typical expression and lovely eye. Correct ears. Not quite finished yet and needs to body and grow coat. Slightly longer cast than 1. Good tail. 3. Rosco’s Hurricane.
Junior Dog. 1. Optimus Prime Gentle Barbarian at Rozibon (Imp Cze) TAF. Second in PD.
Open Dog. 1. Ch Radajasas Henri Fiocca at Delgra. All white male who instantly impressed me for his overall type. I found him quite lovely. Beautiful head and expression. Correct body shape. Compact with level topline. I thought him quite beautiful. Stands on quality bone and lovely tight foot. In super coat of correct texture. Lovely front action although if I am hypercritical, could be a fraction tidier going away. 2. Longsdale's Dance with Me Trebettyn JW. Super male of high order who pushed 1 hard. Good overall proportions. Compact with good tail set. Not using his ears as much as he could which detracted. Could be a fraction tidier in front but lovely drive from the rear. In super bloom. Just preferred eye of the winner. 3 Melitabe Orion von Rosco.
Special Beginners. 1.Optimus Prime Gentle Barbarian at Rozibon (Imp Cze). Winner JD/Second in PD.
Veteran Bitch. 1. Lusam Toodle Pip ShCM. 14 years old and in super condition. Just losing her topline a fraction behind the whithers. Lovely appealing expression with correct head shape and proportions. Excellent ear size and shape. Good eye. Moved well. 2. Jayfeather Parti Ligh Up to size and a little too much of her for me. Preferred ear set on 1. Nicely made with correct shape. Well angulated rear. Preferred tail set on 1. Moved well. Go
Puppy Bitch. Fecimus Its Coming Home at Grovevalle. Beautiful gold bitch who appealed for her overall balance. Lovely head and expression. Beautiful pigment with good eye and rims. Good ears. Broad enough skull for her age. Good bone and feet. Fraction longer cast than ideal. Correct tail set and beautiful plume. Lovely mover.
Open Bitch. 1. Claran Court of Delights at Kichigai. Quality gold bitch. Very feminine. Lovely head and with super pigment. Excellent eye. Good length of neck into well placed shoulder. Good width front. Good bone and feet. Short coupled. Good rear. Moved well.
