German Spitz Mittel

A lovely entry. I enjoyed the dogs & had lots with good qualities. Loved the youngsters as well, good bonus for the breed.

PD (4) 1 Heslop’s Flamuna Arktouros, good square outline with a balance to head & front, head & body development so far giving him the balance & shape, easy brisk action on side. Front more work to come to tighten. Promising future. BP; 2 Saich & Saich’s Zephon Akio at Lindcoly, very promising with the head, type & earset. Good so far in body growth with the coat type coming through, built on nice quarters, moving well. JD (5) Impressive youngsters. 1 Chambers’ Musique Worth The Wait, typical shape & outline, good ratios skull to muzzle, alert attitude, good wedge head, dark eye & well set ear, well boned & true in front, strong body & muscled rearquarters.

Has the coat & type in his wedge head, body shape & balance, impressed & moved to please. Many battles ahead between these two I think; 3 Thomas’ Desaria Davin. LD (4) 1 Williams’ Spellcast Talk To Da Paw at Trebettyn, another typical boy from this litter, in a close contest between these two. Good square shape, had type, strong muzzle, ear & eye, well filled body & rearend, muscle & coat, good tailset & moved well to just get the nod here; 2 Pearce & Francis’ Studholme Rolls Of Thunder at Longsdale, lovely boy with the body, shape & good topline & rearquarters, wedge head.

Good strength & muscle in body & rearquarters, moved well to win the class & take the RCC in a strong challenge; 2 Alfred’s Liubice Just William, has the overall outline & style, good topline, head & neck, nice rearquarters, good action on side gait. Just needs to tighten up in front & rear. VD (1) 1 Thomas’ Desaria Darby for Daraydala, good overall aspects with the head wedge, quarters & muscle strength, strong boy, nice profile & shape, moves well with an enthusiastic attitude.
