Cocker Spaniels

Thanks to all exhibitors for the super entry. I enjoyed my day, and was pleased with the overall quality of the dogs presented to me. My 2 principal winners are well known and both Sh Champions already but I was encouraged by the quality to be found in the puppy classes particularly and also throughout the entry . Some lovely dogs coming along for the future.

Class MPD (8.1)

1 Lowery’s Amaroanne Theos Blue roan dog 7mths good head of correct proportions exhibiting no coarsness, good soft typical expression . Correct moderate neck leading into well set shoulders , short cobby body , short coupled with well sprung ribs. He has a good front, with forechest appropriate for his age, good length of upper arm contributing to good front reach.Good bone. This puppy was right up my street – loved him . Moved well and happily. A proper cocker, moderate, rounded , Happy and well constructed. Delighted to award him BP in breed and then see him go Res Best Puppy in the Gundog Group.

2 Whitehead’s Royaldean Aramis Blue lovely head and clean neck and shoulders good front , nice ribs ,slightly longer cast than 1 but a v promising puppy who was well presented and showed well. Very sound coming and going and keeps a good topline in profile movement. I liked this puppy very much. Unlucky to meet 1st but his second place in no way detracts from his many qualities.
