German Spitz Klein
V (2) 1 Highmoor’s Ch Kartmel Legolas, 10 years black dog, in excellent condition for age, so good to go over, so very well balanced with correct length of neck, level topline, good rib & high set curled tail, glorious head & expression, profuse coat in immaculate order, excellent side action, carriage & excellent rear, tad wide in front but nothing untoward. BV. PD (2) 1 Pearce & Francis’ Longsdale’s Willie Win, super puppy right out of the top drawer, correct size & totally balanced, moderate length of neck, short coupled with high set tail of correct carriage. Topline a little slack but he has time on his side. Delightful head & expression, excellent eye for shape, set & colour, moving well when viewed from all angles, excellent coat & presentation. RBD & BP; 2 Highmoor’s Printzagems Zak Icelett, balanced youngster but not as settled as 1 & coat not nearly as finished either. I liked his neck, firm level topline & high tailset, dark expressive eye of correct shape & set. Front needs to tighten but has plenty of time, moves out very well when viewed in profile with nice self carriage.OD (2) 1 Highmoor’s Ch Printzagems Verve, top class black, a pleasure to go over with everything in the right place, beautiful outline with correct neck, level topline, nice ribbing & high set curled tail, correct angles both fore & aft, top class head & expression with beautiful expression. Mind was not quite on the job in hand & it took him quite a while to settle but in the few moments that he did he moved soundly in all directions. BD.
OB (3) 1 Pearce & Francis’ Ch Radajasa Agent Cher Bertfiz of Longsdale, a beautiful balanced outline with moderately short neck, level topline, excellent rib, short loin & high set tail of correct carriage, correctly proportioned head & so very feminine, eye could be more oval in shape for perfection but is good for colour, excellent coat & presentation, the ultimate showgirl who never once let her handler down & from whatever angle she moved so true & was a real pleasure to watch in side gait as she used herself at all times. BOB.
