German Spitz (Mittel)

Dogs

Puppy

1; ROGERSON, Miss L J CADASARO GEORGIE WITH NOSREGOR (NAF TAF), 6-month-old and full of potential. Super outline and lovely head and expression. Uses his ears very well. Moved soundly and with style. Coat coming along. Certainly, has a future.

Junior

1: DOHENY, Miss Catherine L & KING, Miss Izzy IZLOU THAI ME UP, won the class on the move where he is very precise and very stylish, when he puts his mind to it. He is very typical in outline and carries himself well. Masculine head and expression.

2: FRANCIS, Mr D & PEARCE, Mr G Longsdales the Aviator, preferred the head on this boy and he is very typical in outline. On the stack he impresses enormously, and he will be a title holder no doubt. Today, however, he just wasn’t as clean on the out and back and this is what cost him.

3: ROGERSON, Miss L J NOSREGOR STICKING AROUND

Post Grad

1: DREW, Dr L Doroluna If The Crown Fits, typical in outline, he has a pleasing expression and balanced head. Well coated and correct proportions. In profile he uses himself well, could just be cleaner coming towards me. In super condition.

Limit

1: CHAPMAN, Mr Dave & CHAPMAN, Mrs Susan & CHAPMAN, M Kitsune Notorious (AI), very decent dog, all male but without being overdone. He has a very pleasing outline and has a real spitz action. Moved the best in the class and was presented extremely well

2: BARNES, Ms L & KING, Miss I Izlou All You Knead Is Love, another decent dog, and he pleases to go over . Decent for type and I liked his head and expression. Just could do with concentrating on the move.

3: ROGERSON, Mrs & Mr P & D NOSREGOR HERCULES

Open

1; ROBERTS, Mrs D & FRANCIS, Mr D & PEARCE, Mr G Ch Longsdales Rebel Rouser at Cwrtafon JW , fully mature boy and in super coat and condition. Masculine and has a pleasing expression. He is typical in outline and is good for balance of leg. Moved out with style and ease. RCC

2: SAICH, Mr & Mrs C & L LINDCOLY SIMBA, slightly different in type but still has a typical spitz outline. Well in size, he has an endearing expression and moved well in profile. Not as precise going away as the winner today

Veteran

1: BARNES, Ms L & KING, Miss I Spellcast Talk With Me By Izlou, 7-year-old in sparkling form. Super for type and has a typical outline. Decent coat for texture. Pleasing in profile, he uses himself so well and was the cleanest on the out and back. In the challenge he upped his game and put on a very polished performance to take the CC, his third and deserved crown I was later informed.

2: SMITH, Mrs J Sobriety Suited And Booted, another 7 year and he too has type. He has a decent outline and is correct to go over, just could have used himself coming towards me better today.

3; SAICH, Mr & Mrs C & L Ir Ch LINDCOLY MISCHIEF MAKER

Bitches

Puppy

1: FRANCIS, Mr D & PEARCE, Mr G Longsdale Let Da Fun Begin, 8 month absolutely beautiful young bitch with the most beautiful head and expression. She is a delight with little to change at this age.

2: CHAPMAN, Mr Dave & CHAPMAN, Mrs Susan & CHAPMAN, M KITSUNE Coronation Queen (A.I), 9 months old and very typical in outline. Loved her carriage and she is impressive in profile, just needs to tighten in front and she’ll be away.

3: SAICH, Mr & Mrs C & L LINDCOLY SHE'S A KNOCKOUT

Junior

1: FRANCIS, Mr D & PEARCE, Mr G Longsdale Let Da Games Begin, 8 months, simply breath-taking and I fell for her as soon as she entered the ring. Even at this young age, she has it all there and we will hear a lot more of her. In superb condition and as sound as they come. CC, BOB, BP

2: MOIR, Ms Lisa & MOIR, Mrs Janice & MOIR, Ms Sandi Jansanleis Rave, 17 months and full of type and is the correct shape. She is very decent to go over and she is handled beautifully. Like her enormously

3: BARNES, Ms L & KING, Miss I Izlou The Truffle Maker

Post Graduate

1: BARNES, Ms L & KING, Miss I Izlou Gossip Girl JW, decent for type and well in size, she is beautifully presented and has a delightful expression. She is true in front, and this is where she won’t the class. Coat of good texture and she is pleasing on the move.

2: DREW, Dr L Doroluna's Diamond Crown, super for type and she scores in head. Balanced outline and moved on the right track. She could just tighten in front for advantage.

Limit

1: FRANCIS, Mr D & PEARCE, Mr G Longsdale's Don't Know Much, very typical and full of style, this bitch pleases in expression. Her outline is super and she uses herself to advantage on the move. Champion quality. RCC

2: MOIR, Ms Lisa & MOIR, Mrs Janice & MOIR, Ms Sandi Jansanleis Rave

Open

1: ROGERSON, Mrs & Mr P & D Ch Nosregor unforgettable, good class of 2 quality bitches. This bitch has a very decent outline, and she uses herself so well in profile on the move.

2: DREW, Dr L Izlou Peanut Passion, really liked this bitch too and she is excellent for type. Just felt she rushed a little on the go round and so lost her outline.
