Critique

Class 74. German Spitz Klein Graduate Dog or Bitch (3,0)

1^st Francis and Pearce     Longsdale Willie Win

12 months old cream male shown in good coat and condition. Well shaped head with very slightly round eye. Good proportions. Moved away a little close, but showed powerful coordinated sidegait.

2^nd Metcalf          Flectem Midnight Blue

18 months old black bitch shown in full coat. Very good condition and a super character. Would prefer a slightly flatter head and a less rounded eye. Moved true away and back, but had a tendency to look at the handler causing her forelegs to lift a little in the sidegait.

3^rd Francis and Pearce    Longsdale Feel Free To Stare  BPIB

8 months old pale cream bitch not yet in full coat. A little reserved, but showed well. Would prefer her proportions to be a little shorter. Moved soundly.

Class 75. German Spitz Klein Open Dog or Bitch (3,1)

1^st Francis and Pearce     Ch. Longsdale Jen You Win J.W. ShCm. BOB and BIS

2.5 year old cream bitch shown in very good coat and condition. Good head and expression. Well balanced proportions and matched angles front and rear. Moved correct away and towards with exceptionally good ground covering sidegait and was well handled throughout. Best of Breed and eventually went on to Utility Group 1 and then Best in Show

2^nd Metcalf          Ch. Flectem  Domino

7 year old black and white dog with exceptional coat and very good condition. Lovely head and earset, with very strong bone for size. To be picky would prefer a slightly less round eye. Moved well away and towards. Picks front feet up a little high on sidegait.
