After not having any dog puppies I was presented with five lovely bitches!  

1st: 5981 HARRIS Mr W C Zarcrest Black N'tantrum  

2nd: 5975 BRYANT, Miss L & NELSON Mrs L Zarcrest Having A Tantrum With Nasailleen NAF. I found it hard to split these two bitches as they were very similar and now I see they are litter sisters. The winner is slightly more mature in rib and body and was perhaps a little steadier on the move. Both have lovely heads, are compactly built and impressed on the move with their easy action, good topline and merry temperaments.

2nd: 5979 DUMMETT Ms B Bogestvennaya Skazka Estrella At Almondsbury (Imp). Striking b/w of good type and some quality. Grand head and muzzle, good length of neck and decent depth and breadth of chest. Well angulated and presents a lovely picture in profile.
