Flat Coated Retrievers

Puppy

1st Bitcon Dream Dancer

Stood alone in the class but a worthy winner and she was a bundle of fun, so really enjoying herself which is important in a puppy, she was just six month old. Head developing nicely with a good overall shape. Neck clean, needs to drop in to her front but has plenty of time. Body of good overall proportion, ribs springing nicely and loin well proportioned. Good through the quarters, stifle well bent. Very exuberant and needs to settle on the move. More than pleased to award her Best Puppy.

Junior

1st Hopevalley Morning Twister

Smart chap just over one year old. Well-made throughout with balanced angles fore and aft. Head is appealing with a good overall shape, enhanced by a kind eye. Clean through the neck in to a decent front assembly, well boned legs. Body well-proportioned with ribs well sprung and a firm loin, top line level and held throughout, just would have liked a better finish to his croup. Quarters well developed with stifles well bent. Good action on the move which gave him Best of Breed.

2nd Bonnyhillbrae Love of Joy

Not quite the finish of the winner but she has a good overall shape and balance. Fourteen months old with an appealing head with a pleasing expression. Good proportions through the body with ribs well developed for her age and strength in loin. Quarters well made with stifles well bent. Good drive on the move but needs to settle.

Weimaraner

Puppy

1st Joneva Hollywood Glamour

Super shape and type to this young lady, feminine head of correct strength, good reach of neck and correct angulation for her age. Level topline and good through the rib and loin, correct amount of bone and substance, stood on good legs and feet. Moved true and steady to win the class. Best Puppy Bitch and Reserve Best of Breed, very close up to top honours. If she carries on developing in this vein with a bit of maturity I think she will do very well.

2nd Almoor Macey Gray

Very feminine with the correct amount of substance. Pleasing head and lovely expression and eye. Super reach of neck and clean through the shoulders, good depth of forechest and spring of rib for her age. Balanced angles both fore and aft and good bone and substance. Not happy today in the cold hall either on the stack or the move as the winner and lost her shape. Really nice type of bitch who in time should finish very nicely.

Junior

1st Gunalt Lustrous TAF

She presented a clean and elegant outline and has balanced feminine head. Good reach of neck leading to well-placed shoulders and return of upper arm, needs to drop in to her front but will do that with time. Body of good overall proportion with correct spring of rib just a tad too much covering today. Firm through the loin and well-made quarters. She was a bit of a git on the move today and played her handler up. lost her shape on the move sometimes but when she got into her stride I could see a positive driving action with accuracy of footfall.
