S B Dog or Bitch Entries 1

1st Burton, Ravendane Deal me in With Elbarevol. 10 Month old Mantle Dog of good colour and makings, Head was well chiselled with a good width across the muzzle and correct bite, kind expression, good length of neck going into correct shoulders, good top line for age and well set croup, nice width at stifle and good angulation, he just needs to settle a bit on the move to show more drive from rear but I’m sure this will improve with maturity.

2nd McGuinness, Nelson-McGuinness & Burns Dinahtron Rags To Riches.
