MITTEL : My thanks to the exhibitors for a lovely quality entry.

PD. (2). 1. Powell’s, Desaria Flash Gordon at Brookwell. Sable dog of almost 7 months old. LOvely head pattern with neat ears, muzzle of correct length to head. Good mouth and nice expression. Almost square body with plenty of bone and substance. Moved well for one so young keeping a level topline and super tail carriage. Coat of good texture. 2. Chambers and Rogerson’s, Druitz Corncracker for Teamspitz. Another super puypp. Cream dog of 8 months with attractive well balanced head with a lovely dark eye. Super pigmentation and so well presented. Good straight forelegs, sound bodyshape. Splitting hairs between these two puppies. Will be interesting to see how they mature.

JD. (1). 1. Hewett’s, Runfold Frottle with Spellcast. Chocolate dog of just 12 months who is at the ‘in between stage’ at the moment. Slightly lacking in substance which makes him appear leggy, but this should improve as he matures. He has a good head, correct mouth, nice eye and compatiable pigment. Moved well carrying his tail correctly.

PGD. (6). 1. Hunter’s, Meo Aus Dem Norden (Imp). Attractive white dog with strong masculine head of correct proportions. Super mouth and pigmentation. Well boned almost square body. Good shoulder, upper arm and tight elbows. Good hindquarters and in well muscled hard condition. IN super coat and moved well in profile. RBD. 2. Powell’s, Desaria Aurelius at Brookwell. Another nice one. This time a black in gleaming coat and good condition giving a good outline. Good head shape, flat skull, nice wedge, well set eye. Nicely constructed body with good ribbing. Moderate hind angulation and straight hocks. 3. Williams’, Druitz Superted

OD. (8). 1. Powell’s, Desaria Disraeli at Brookwell. Very striking wolf sable dog with really lovely Sptiz head, with dark eye and super expression. Good neck, shoulder placement and upper arm. Close coupled with good bone and substance. Well ribbed and good tuck up. In profuse coat of correct texture. Beautifully presented and moving soundly. A real showman and a credit to the breed. BD and BOB. 2. Blight’s, Rosechow Cappachino. Another quality dog, though not in his best jacket on the day. Good head pattern with correctly placed neat ears, obliquely set eye and correct dentition. Sound construction with straight front, firm body, level topline and tight tailset. Another who moved well. 3. O’Loughlin’s, Claran Earthworm Jim Under Caoilta.

PB. (4). 1. Powell’s, Desaria Fanny Ann at Brookwell. Liked this very compact extrovert puppy with a pretty feaminine head who enjoyed her day out. I see she is a repeat mating of my BOB winner and very much in the same mould. Well constructed body on firm legs with neat feet. Should have a bright future. BPIB. 2. Beech’s, Galvizach Black Velvet. Another lovely puppy. Black of correct size. In super coat and well presented. Feminine head with good stop, muzzle and wedge. Lovely dark eye and sweet expression. Almost square outline with good bone and substance. Straight forelegs and neat cat feet. Moved well. 3. William’s, Druitz Mistyfall.

JB. (4). 1. Rogerson and Dore’s, Kateamdy Black Magic at Nosregor. Stunning black of nice size. Head of correct proportions with dark eye, neat ears and correct mouth. She tops this with a lovely feminine expression. Well balanced body with good ribbing, straight forelegs and correct moderate hind angulation and good hocks. Super mover keeping a level topline and tight tail carriage. BB. 2. Hunter’s, Rossfort Proviso. Extrovert cream bitch with nice head pattern and super dentition. Correct size and well constructed with good bone and spring of rib. Firm legs, tight elbows and neat feet. Needs to settle on the move. 3. O’Loughlin’s, Runfold Fast Forward to Caoilta.

PGB. (2). 1. Forrester and Hughes and Cook’s, Grizwold Great Garbo. Attractive wolf sable of correct size. Head with good muzzle and wedge, dark well set eye and nice expression, but would prefer a smaller ears. Good body shape and well presented in good coat and carried her tail well. Front movement ok but rear movement could be better.

OB. (4). 1. Chamber’s, Dramidas Haza Parti for Musique. Black and white particolour I have judged before. She is still a nice sound bitch. Not flashy, in fact her markings do not help the overall picture. She has a pleasing well balanced head with good foreface and correct pigmentation. Very compact body, straight forelegs, moderate hind angulation. Super mover. RBB. 2. Hewitt’s, Runfold Eternal at Spellcast. Black and tan bitch with pleasing outline with straight front, tight elbows and level topline. Moving well keeping a tight tail carriage. 3. Sear’s, Desaria Sesire.
