Thank you for my entry with some quality exhibits present & different colours. We are very lucky in this breed to such a diverse colour palette, long may that continue.

PD (1) 1 Gittins & Williams’ Cadasaro Party Animal, 7 month old parti male, a striking looking puppy with ample bone, straight front, level topline, correct pigment, ears could be a tad smaller, nicely set eye. Moved well when settled a very happy dog enjoying himself. BPD & RBD. JD (1) 1 C Party Animal. PGD (1) 1 Taylor’s Zephon King Of The Rock for Tispitza, 22 month old cream dog I like & have placed well previously. He has a good wedge shaped with correct muzzle & tight flews, kind dark eyes & made good use of ears. Good length of neck set well into shoulders, level topline & well off for bone, nice tight feet. Moved & showed well, with plenty of cream coloured coat. Unfortunately gave his handler a hard time in the challenge at the end. BD. OD (1) A.

PB (1) 1 Church & Bamford’s Fisherbloom Blue Moon with Claricheon, 9 month old bl/s bitch who I have admired from the ringside, she has a lovely feminine head & gentle expression, correct dark eye & small ears, already showing a nice arch to the neck well laid into shoulders, level topline, enough bone, moved very well covered the ground nicely, in good quality coat, pushed hard for top honours, just needs to body up. I will watch her with interest. RBB & BP. JB (0). PGB (1) 1 Andrews’ Claran Pepperpots, 2 year old dark o/s bitch (my favourite colour). Very nice wedge shaped head, dark eye & gentle expression, neat ears used well, correct arch to neck into well laid shoulders, level topline, quality bone, carried tell well, good movement using all the ring. Her maturity & overall quality demanded BB & BOB. OB (0).
