Quite difficult to assess movement today due to the size of the ring

6mth old with lovely head, good head planes, good mask, firm topline, good bone & feet, moved well with good reach and drive but just need to tighten

2nd White’s Mayaberg Elkap Be Brave

First show for this youngster and owner and he coped well, he has a lovely head with kind expression, well made with good bone. He moved ok but needs time to gel with his handler.

Junior (2)

1st Niall & Rothery Davenheath Gladiator

15 month male who I felt just had more coat and finish on the day. Lovely head with good planes, good muzzle proportions and mask. He had good bone, was well made and was in good coat. A sound & steady mover with good reach & drive

2nd Brown’s Davenheath Gipsy Girl to Brenaljay

A lovely quality female, slightly longer cast. She had lovely head with good expression & masking, well made throughout, not quite to coat of the winne. She moved well but just felt she was somewhat hampered by the smaller ring on the move.

Brittany

Puppy (2)

Two lovely puppies at very different stages

1st & BP,PG4 Slack’s Bonapartist Snow Goose

I thought her head was just beautiful, correct proportions with good skull & muzzle ratio. Her ears were set well which just enhanced her lively expression, strong neck set into well placed shoulders, ribs as developed as you would expect for her age, moved correctly for the breed. As she fills her frame and matures, I am sure she will have a bright future.

2nd Askey’s Bonapartist Sargent Pepper

Loved the head on this young man, another with correct proportions and he had such a lovely expression also. Correctly angulated with firm topline, wouldn’t want him to grow anymore. Not quite as coordinated on the move as the winner.

Post Graduate

1st & BOB Askey’s Bonapartist Private Ryan of Ambivarii

Super o/w male who was just what you would want in a Brittany, my notes say workmanlike and cobby. He had a super head & expression, good neck, well placed shoulders, correct spring of rib, short back & loin with well-developed quarters, good bone & moved correctly. Nothing flashy just a sound honest workmanlike dog.

2nd Ryan’s Patouche Oriana

Slightly finer framed young lady with pretty head and alert expression, she had good angulation front & rear, firm topline, she wasn’t quite as square as the winner. Moved ok

Open

1st & RBOB Cocking & Barnaby’s Sh Ch Bonapartist Odette at Ruskinite

Super quality o/w female, super head with alert expression, good neck, firm topline, correct spring of rib with short back and loin, adequate bone for her frame and another who was typically workmanlike & cobby. Moved correctly

Another cobby female with pleasing head & expression, good neck, well placed shoulders, strong firm topline, she was of correct proportions and moved correctly.

Litter mate to winner and similar comments apply, another lovely head & expression, well placed shoulders, good topline, had slightly less concentration span than her sibling but still presented a decent outline. Moved well when she did concentrate

Post Graduate (6,3abs)

1st Lewin’s Vynesbrook Deja Bleu

Quality male who was balanced and racy, he had a super head & expression, correct proportions, super reach of neck, well angulated front, strong firm topline, well-developed quarters, in super coat & condition. Was a bit full of himself but moved well and deserved his win.

Post Graduate (7,2abs)

1st Steel’s Sazmallin Beijing Boy to Juhua (Bracco)

When stacked this dog gave such an appearance of power and quality, good head with divergent head planes, strong neck, correct topline, well developed quarters, to be critical he was a bit flat in his front pasterns so untidy coming towards you but he showed great power, reach & drive in profile I felt he deserved his win.

Digweeds Willokin Whistling Blower

Quality boy, scored on his clean outline and his balance, lovely head, with kind gentle expression, clean through neck and shoulder, still needs to firm up in body and topline, well-developed quarters, lovely bone & feet and correct double coat and otter tail. Moved well
