Bullmastiff

O (2) 1st Bratchie & Baillie’s Essenceera Turn The Magic On. 11 month old fawn dog. Well grown and mature in body for his age. Good square, broad head, moderate wrinkle and strong muzzle. Dark eye, tidy bite. Small, well-shaped ears, correctly set. Muscular neck, broad, deep chest. Excellent bone and feet. Well muscled quarters, moderately angled. High set tail, just a bit short in length. Moved very well from profile and absolutely sound. BOB, BP & PG4.

BMD

O (6) 1st Weston’s Bernfawwr Jonquill. Lovely bitch that appealed for her well balanced outline and good breed type. Strong head, flat skull and good stop. Good strength and length of muzzle and correct bite. Excellent neck and depth of chest. Firm topline and strong body covering well sprung ribs. Good angles front and back. Firm hocks. Typical rich colours and markings. Moved sufficiently out and back with an excellent side gait that clinched her not only the class but also BOB and G4 in a strong Group.

2nd Bird’s Cullumbern Milano. Cracking pup that held his own in this class of mature exhibits despite being only 8 months old. So promising and of pleasing size and outline. Super type, good conformation and an excellent mover. Head of good shape and coming along well. Good bone and stands on lovely tight feet. Big puppy coat, good markings and colours. Well presented. BP and PG1. Think he will have a great future.

Lovely wedge-shaped head, broad skull, good muzzle. Ears well set and of a nice size and shape. Almond shaped eye that could be a shade darker. Strong neck, chest developing well, well sprung ribs, firm topline and good quarters. Holds his tail correctly with the desired plume. Easy movement from profile, covering the ground soundly.

2nd Howe & Green’s Nostar Salvo. Really liked this 8 month old Neapolian Mastiff dog pup. Well grown and reared with strong bone and lovely body for a youngster. His head is developing well, good square strong muzzle and clean eyes. Good conformation. Just needs to practice moving as he tended to pace which unbalanced his gait. With further training could have a good future.

P (7) 1st Head’s Cullumbern Valencia Millermead. Beautiful BMD bitch pup. Litter sister to BPIB Bernese here today and she is very similar for type, conformation and movement. Just needs to gain a bit more confidence and could have an equally exciting future. Good mover, lovely coat and rich colours.

2nd Maddy’s Lady Red Dream. Just 6 month old and still raw. Lovely square outline. Good skull shape, square muzzle. Good eye and typical expression. Gave a good account of herself on the stack and on the move. Just needs time.
