1. Smith’s Flynpyg Porky Pig J.W. (RBOB) – Black boy lovely head all male without coarseness, keen eye, pleasing head properties. Good angles both for and aft, correct jacket, short coupled. Close decision for BOB, just though the yellow bitch was more settled.

Weimaraner

1. Stamp’s Tynsil Starman (BP & BOB), loved this boy for breed type once he kept 4 feet on the ground. That said I loved his exuberance, which one can allow for in a puppy. When he did settle, moved well with good extension at front and drove well from rear with the correct width. Pleasing head and with the correct angles.

2. Hostler’s Kalimor Daisy (RBOB) – Pleasing bitch with a lot to like, everything in the right order. Unfortunately seemed lethargic when moving, hence did not present the alertness I was looking for.
