Windsor Dog Show Society

Breed: Japanese Spitz

Windsor Championship Dog Show – July 2015

Thank you to the Windsor committee for the invitation to judge the breed at this level, I thoroughly enjoyed the appointment.

Thank you to the exhibitors for bringing me such a quality entry and accepting all placings in a sporting manner. Although I no longer own a Japanese Spitz I have a genuine love and interest in the breed and admire the improvements being gained consistently by breeders.

Japanese Spitz

JD (4,0)

1st: BOWEN & BRADLEY’s Charney Precious Gift For Kumiko. This youngster is an alert showman. Masculine head of good proportions, well placed dark eyes, and neat ears. Correct body proportions, with strong arched neck, well sprung rib and broad chest, completed with a high set plumed tail. Presented in immaculate condition, with clean profuse coat. Moved with a nimble, smooth action, holding a good outline, but needs to tighten in front slightly. RBD & BPIB & PG3.
