London & Home Counties Boxer Club

 London and Home Counties Boxer Club Show 19th October 2019 Judge: Miss Ann Ingram

I had a very enjoyable day judging bitches and would like to thank my most efficient stewards for their hard work. Overall I found the head and expressions to be good. Fronts were the main concern today with many otherwise nice bitches having very loose front movement and lacking front extension going around the ring. I was pleased with the quality of the bitches throughout the classes, giving me several tight decisions.

Minor Puppy Bitch (10)(0) a really nice class to start with.

1. Pyes Burndene Agent Provocateur

Well balanced feminine bitch just right for her age. Beautiful head with dark expressive eyes, correct chin and well padded muzzle. Long crested neck, good bone and feet, short back, well angulated hindquarters, a really nice youngster.

2.Mc Carthage’s, Gethins & Banks, Sunhawk Norwatch Lovelace At Jeddhi

Another really nice bitch with super outline, just not quite as mature as winner. The sweetest head and expression, long crested neck, lovely topline and strong hindquarters, keeps her lovely outline on the move, she will only get better and better as she matures, one to watch for the future.

3. Hackerby & Dowell’s Lovin It at Norwilbeck Bellchime

Puppy Bitch (3)(0)

1. Mairs Glenauld Jorja Best Puppy Bitch

Well balanced bitch with beautiful outline. Very nice head with well padded muzzle, dark expressive eyes, and wide chin. Good bone and feet, short back, good topline and strong hindquarters, a little untidy in front movement but really comes into her own going round the ring. 2.Harris’s Million Diddles from Newlaithe

Red/ white with nice square body and good topline, typical well proportioned head could have a slightly cleaner skull, and a little more chin. Good neck and shoulder, short back good topline, strong hindquarters carries herself well on the move.

3. Welch’s Newlaithe On the Diddle

CC. 2. Jones & Charles Charlons Astute

What a well made bitch this is. Lovely square outline with nicely sloping topline , good bone and feet, well laid shoulders, strong hindquarters, moves around the ring with great drive and a lovely outline, typical head but would just prefer a cleaner skull and a little less wrinkle
