Bath Pharaoh Hound

Rather a lot of absentees on the day. The breed has a high percentage of imported dogs being shown, and successful.

Minor Puppy D (1) 1st: 5447 FLETCHER, Mr S & MERRYWEATHER Miss L Estrella Feerica Vittorio Veneto To Ynchreenoo Very promising pup, good proportions and already well muscled up. Super head, slight stop. Lovely eye, ear and expression. Lengthy neck. Could have a slightly better lay of shoulder and feet need to improve. Deep chest. Well ribbed. He has a super rear. Front can tighten but otherwise a good mover. Would like a better coat. Of the 3 males present I felt although raw he had the best shape and rear. BP & CC Puppy d.
