Hounds:

A strong group. I was very pleased with my principal winners.

Whippet.

Puppy (4) 1. Jones’, Jothryn Blondes Av More Fun, 8mths fawn bitch, pleasing head, arched neck, good depth of brisket at this age, well angulated hindquarters, moved with drive. BP, PG2.

2. Hughes & Bradleys, Nichrisar Greyling, 11mths fawn brindle bitch. Good front and hind angulation. Holding top line on the move, tail too rigid.

3. Brown’s, Tamalden Silver Surfer.

Grad (2,1abs), 1. Aliuskeviciene’s, Starkindler Galaxy Far Away, fawn/white bitch, a pretty girl but carrying too much weight, which spoiled her movement.

P.G (3,2) 1. Clarks, Coynachie Crazy Desire, fawn brindle bitch, has all the angles, pleasing head, neat rose ears, correct topline, good bend of stifle, throwing front left foreleg coming towards

2. Storey & Reid’s, Siam Princess, another fawn bitch that was well angled. Loaded shoulders spoiled her front movement.  

O (4) 1. Jones’, Jothryn Golden Glow, JW. Dark brindle & white bitch, excels in breed type, beautiful feminine head, small rose ears, arched neck into well laid shoulders, good front and hind angulation, a joy to watch on the move. My only complaint was, she was not going home with me! BOB, G2, pushed the Deerhound very hard indeed.

2. Aliuskeviciene’s, Shiner Shakira Tik Romantika, (Imp Ltu), fawn brindle & white. Another quality hound of the size I like. Not the head of 1 but still a quality head, arched neck, correct angulation front and hind, good top line, moved well.

3. Brown’s, Collooney Why Eye Man At Tamelden.

Dachshund (M/S)

Grad (1) 1. Lewis & Glasbant’s, Trixhund Bring Me Luck, Red young man of 13mths, good keel, well ribbed, good top line which he held on the move. BP. BOB.

O (1)1. Lewis & Glasbant’s, Trixhund Bring Me Sunshine, JW, ShCM. Older full brother to grad winner and much the same remarks apply, just felt he didn’t have the same oomph as the youngster.

Dachs (W/H)

O (2) 1. Hastings, Lesandnic Sleepytime, ShCM. Gorgeous girl of 7 ½ yrs. Loved her head and expression, correct keel, level top line, well angulated hindquarters. BOB

2. Hastings, Bardings Bar-K Truffles, 7mth old daughter of first, good head, front and hindquarters, not as together as her dam but showing great promise already. BP

Afghan

Grad (2,1) 1. Bleasedale’s, Tulak No Strings Attached, houndy, cream 12 mth old girl, liked her style, good head with dark almond eyes, well laid shoulder and good hindquarters, movement impossible to assess due to puppy nonsense. Nice hound nonetheless. BP, BOB

O (1abs)

Borzoi 

Grad (1 abs)

O (3,2) 1. Donnelly’s, Donskoi Ivanoff, s/r boy who may have been alone but was well worthy of his place. Lovely old fashioned type that I like. Well veined head, refined back skull, arched neck, well angulated in front and behind. Just tighten that front movement and he will give anyone a run for their money. BOB, G4

Deerhound

O (1) 1. Peach’s, Tiobraid Solo Venture To Kilbourne, my find of the day. He may have stood alone but he stood proudly and owned that ring. Masculine head with that far away gaze, neater ears than has become the norm. strong neck, well-muscled front, deep chest, good bend of stifle and length of second thigh. Again the ring didn’t allow him to get into his stride. BOB, G1 and I was delighted he went RBIS. 

PBGV

O (4.1) 1. Bartley’s, Erylan Zeus Roi Des Dieux, handsome 9mth old boy, with a bright future I’m sure. Quality head with friendly expression, low set ears, well laid shoulders, deep chest, level top line, a joy to watch on the move. BP, BOB, G3, PG1 and again delighted he went RBPIS.

2. Bartley’s, Erylan Loki Maitre Du Mal, Another with good head and expression, good front and hind angulation, just not the pazazz of his kennel mate.

3. Whiting’s, Tangaer Enigma at Glanbeuno.

AVNSC

Grad (4) 1. Jones’, Barterhound Picasso, 8mth Beagle dog, best mover here. Soft expression, correct ear leathers, straight front, well sprung ribs, good tail set and carriage.

2. Jones’, Eardley Chocolate Éclair, sweet little 9 mth old Beagle girl, dark eyes and the most appealing expression, movement not as positive as 1.

3. Hughes’, Sanffraid Brenig, I.W.

P.G. (2,1) 1. Humphrey’s, Blevwill Kept Me Secret For Gloynbyw, BFDeB, handy size, good front and hindquarters, moved well.

 O (3,1) 1. Heath’s, Ch Boughton Back To Blighty, ShCM, Brindle/white Greyhound bitch, good head and expression, strong neck, well laid shoulders, good deep chest, good bend of stifle, carrying too much weight for me which spoiled her top line. BAVNSC

2. Humphrey’s, Blevwill Drop Dead Gorgeous Avec Gloynbyw, ShCM, BFDeB bitch, harsh coat correct top line, movement loose.

AV Hound Puppy (1) 1. J Blondes Av M F.
