KLEIN

MPD (1) 1 Serman’s Tymy Tymex. 6 months sable, as is to be expected, still very immature. Good bone, legs and feet, rather short in foreface and ears on the large side, could do with more length of second thigh and stands cowhocked, shown in good condition, moderate gait.
PD (1) 1 Bradbury’s Wychlea Rhonday Vooh. 10 months black, medium size and strength, ears a bit large and stop a bit pronounced, otherwise good head and expression, square in proportions, of good type and quality, more slope to upper arm and better layback of shoulder would further improve forehand, this is reflected in movement which, though sound, could be more co-ordinated and not so short stepping, very good character.
JD (1) 1 Halligan’s Icabel Shine On. Brown and white of decent size and type, fairly strong, good coat and bone, tended to stand cow hocked, adequate movement, character not strong enough.
PGD (5, 1) 1 Holmes’ Oberitz Prinz Charming. Medium sized black of very good type and quality, head proportions ok, though somewhat marred by ears which are set on the low side and a bit round in eye, good coat and condition, moved soundly and well. 2 Morgan’s Dare To Dream Of Ahlen. Top size black with silver shading, good condition and coat, good type, well boned, slightly forward placed shoulder, moved well, though tends to throw his front feet in the air. 3 Allison’s Oberitz Renegade.
LD (4) 1 Trendle’s Lusam Crispin Blunt. Top size, perhaps a shade over, black, level bite, susperb type and quality, very good bone, legs and feet, very square and angled correctly front and rear, very good side movement, extremely sound and oozes Spitz type. This won him first place over two. 2 Chambers’ Holbain Benny For Musique. White, 2 years, in very good coat and condition, excellent pigment, bone, legs and feet, somewhat round in eye and too much stop, not very co-ordinated in movement.
OD (5, 1) 1 Hill’s Enzo Z Temnych Noci At Cyfelin (Imp Cze). 3 years wolf sable, very good masculine head, small ears, slightly round in eye, a strong dog who presented a very nice overall picture, very good coat and condition, moved soundly and well. CC, his first I understanad. 2 Serman’s Ch Tymy Tymajusting. Black with silver shading, very good proportions and balance, good head, eye perhaps a shade round, good bone, legs and feet, moved and showed well. Res CC. 3 Mole’s Molead Moon Beam.
MPB (3) 1 Penwarne’s Sheldamar Spell On Voo. Black, very good type, good head, ears on the large side, movement quite good from the side but tied in elbows coming making front movement a bit stilted, could have a better angled shoulder. 2 Thomas’ Gamegards Sugar Loaf Fairy. 8 months cream, head a bit pommy and eyes too round, a bit overawed but still a young puppy, moved quite well, sound coming and going. 3 Knight’s Oberitz Oo La La.
PB (5) 1 Bradbury’s Wychlea Isadora Ball. 10 months black, a little star! Lovely type and quality, very good head and eye, very good construction and balance, lovely bone, legs and feet, moved very well, on occasion at slower speed, showed some exhuberence with forelegs. This disappeared at speed when she was quite spectacular, very sound, CC and BOB. 2 Beech’s Runfold Im Cheeky Me In Sandkarah. Top size brown who must not grow anymore, ears a tad large, otherwise fairly good head, good bone and nice coat, tied in elbow, side movement fair, apart from the winner this was a rather poor class. 3 Knight’s Oberitz Oo La La.
PGB (2) 1 Thomas’ Gamegards Christmas Fairy. Cream, in good coat and condition, medium size and strength, in good hard condition, sound in movement coming and going, eyes a bit round and head marred by severe tear staining, nevertheless a nice type. 2 Halligan’s Northern Light At Icabel. Cream and orange particolour, somewhat overweight, coat tends to wave on back, head could be improved by less stop and eyes are round, overweight and rolled in movement, sound enough coming and going.
LB (7) A good class. 1 Allison’s Oberitz Astrobee. Black of very nice type, nice head, good expression, eye, bone, legs and feet, medium size, in good coat and condition, moved very well and quite sound. If she were a bit more outgoing would, I am sure, be a contender for top honours. 2 Hill’s Edburton Llyngoes At Cyfelin. Light sable, medium size and strength, very nice quality but not the clean outline of the winner, being somewhat low on the forehand, good body condition and coat, moved soundly and quite well. 3 Trendle’s Lusam Parti Popper.
OB(2) 1 Serman’s Ch Dourhu Black Velvet. Black, beautifully proportioned bitch with good length of leg, good typically Spitz head, very typy, good bone, legs and feet, moved very well and soundly, a shade better in head than two. Res CC. 2 Bradbury’s Ch Wychlea Aimy Vooh. Beautiful black, good head but would prefer slightly less stop, superb type which she has obviously passed onto her daughter, the CC winner. Excellent tail set and quarters, very good bone, legs and feet, moved very well and very sound.
