Junior Bitch (1, 1).   

Post Graduate Bitch (1, 1).   

Open Bitch (3, 1).  1. Cullen & Gregg’s Philoma Ms Kalifornia, 2 years, black.  A square, balanced, feminine bitch with a pretty head of good length, dark eye and keen expression, good dentition, slightly arched neck set cleanly into well laid shoulders, good return of upper arm, reasonable depth of chest with a good forechest, well off for bone which is well carried to tight feet, nice body and topline, strongly made quarters with good width and turn of stifle, coat harsh and well presented, moved soundly in all directions.  BB and BOB. 2. Houslop’s Eskaidee Firefly At Aligael ShCM, 4 years, black.  Another attractive head of nice proportions, dark eye and good bite, typical expression, good front angulation, nice width and depth of chest but with less forechest than the winner, straight legs, slightly sloping topline, I liked her short body and loin, coat at an in between stage but evidently harsh, nice temperament and attentive to her handler, altogether more muscled than 1 and moved well, just preferred the winner going away.  RBB and RBOB.
