1)Barnes Izlou The Roxstar, Cream/pale gold, Super young male so nice for size, he is compact and well balanced all through, admired his well proportioned head with dark oval eyes obliquely set, small neat ears and moderate neck well set on, excellent forehand with straight forelegs and small rounded feet, he is well ribbed up with a moderate tuck up and level topline, hindquarters in balance with front, presented in lovely coat and condition, he scored highly on the move being straight up and back and holding his shape in profile, was in consideration for higher honours and am sure his title isn’t far away as he matures.
2)Andrew Claran Cinnamon Swirl, gold sable,  another very promising young male presented in lovely coat and condition, nice for size and balance, admired his head, eye and expression, neck sits cleanly on a good front assembly, well ribbed back with a firm level topline, high set tail, moderate quarters in balance with front with hocks well let down, moved out freely without exaggeration.

GERMAN SPITZ BREEDERS AND OWNERS CLUB
CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW
19th SEPTEMBER, 2026
Many thanks to the committee of this club for awarding me the privilege of judging BIS. The two judges certainly sent through quality dogs making my task a little harder but more pleasurable. I thought that the Mittels have improved considerably in the past 3/4 years
and was very impressed by my winners.
BEST IN SHOW - Francis & Pearce CH LONGSDALES LOOK AT ME NOW a two yrs old Mittel dog that was up to size but was extremely well proportioned, moved out very well both ways, and lived up to his name. On the day, I preferred his front conformation over that of the Klein that challenged strongly.
RESERVE BEST IN SHOW - Barnes and King CH KITSUNE THE LIONESS AT IZLOU (A1) JW. 4yrs old bitch. Yet another Mittel of real quality and not in the least surprised to see she has gained her title. Another that never slacked after a long day and moved around the ring with purpose. Two top quality Mittels.
BEST PUPPY IN SHOW - Lampen & Wilson KISMETS TOP TIER IS ROSCO 9 months old Klein of real promise being well balanced with pleasing head and good bone and body substance and showed well for her handler, moving out well both ways.
RESERVE BEST PUPPY IN SHOW - Taylor TISPITZA TAKE ME TO THE TOP an 8 month Mittel bitch with good overall shape. Well balanced, pleasing head, good rib and body and another that moved and showed well.
BEST VETERAN IN SHOW - Cheyney-Wiles FECIMUS THE GOOD FAIRY 10yrs old Klein bitch that still enjoyed her day out, Bitch of lovely size and proportions, straight front assembly, nice head with decent dentition and still moved well. In very good condition and a credit to her owner
