I would like to thank the committee for inviting me to judge at this well run show, I would also like to thank everyone who entered. It made for a very enjoyable day. P(3,1) 1 Loverock and Eddies’ Thornywait Mamma Mia, 7 month old baby which stood out immediately with her constant waggy tail, which didn’t stop when on the move. Sweet feminine head leading down to well laid shoulders, standing on a lovely straight front with super angulation that was matched on the backend. Lovely strong topline which she holds well on the move. Well proportioned, short-coupled body. Well-muscled backend that helps her drive around the ring with power. Excellent presentation and handling. BP and delighted to see her take PG2. 2 Douthewaite and Wharf’s Gracewood Makenzie J(4,3) Whitfield’s Amberdella Miracle Dancer, 13 month old bitch that gave her handler a bit of work in this class but settled better in the subsequent classes. Stood alone but deserved her placing, lost out in another class due to maturity. Pretty bitch with a kind expression with a good shoulder placement, nice straight front, short-coupled and well balanced. Moved well, good presentation. N(3,2) 1 Whitfield’s Amberdella Miracle Dancer PG(7,3) 1 Jackson’s Mavistan Nearco at Swanavon, Smart 2 year old dog of good proportions with great bone. Masculine head with a kind expression. In profile he has superb balance that is confirmed when you put your hands on him. Super front angulation that matches the rear. Nice straight front, standing on catlike front feet. Good strong topline held brilliantly on the move, short coupled. Nice powerful driving action on the move not surprising when feeling the muscle tone of his hindquarters. Occasionally giving his handler a hard time but when he does it right it works. Well presented and handled considering his eagerness to play with the other dogs. Delighted to award him BOB, 2 Loverock’s Lovissa Diamond Sparkle O(6,4) 1 Jackson’s Mavistan Nearco at Swanavon, 2 Ridyard-Lane’s Kulawand Final Quest RBOB Anthony Trinder Judge
