2nd: Dorrell, Miss A & Jenkins, Mr J. TOLLISTY MOET EN CHANDON. Slightly longer than one. Soft in topline. Good forehand, ribs and quarters. Nicely proportioned and good balance. Just needs to tighten up and I’m sure time will benefit this one.

1st: Lam, Miss A & Leung, Mr S. TOLLISTY OUT TO GET YOU. Nice type. Good colour. Really smart mover on the around. Good front, developing back end. A shade difficult to assess at times as he didn’t know his job quite yet with his novice handler but he had enough breed type and characteristics for me to award him Best Puppy In Breed and Best Special Beginners in Breed and go forward to represent the breed in these competitions.


2nd: Strevens, Miss H. TOLLISTY YOU CAN'T DECLINE. Smart puppy with lots to like. Moving happily here today. Nice almond shaped eye. Super coat and condition. Enjoyed his day out.

Class OD (10 Entries) Abs: 1

What a lovely class of beautiful dogs. I was honoured to have to make the hair splitting decisions between them. My thanks to all the exhibitors for this wonderful opportunity. There was little to choose between these first two in this class. Both had excellent topline’s, tail sets and quarters. Good bone, feet and correct proportions. Nice balance all through. Wedge shaped heads with good ear set and almond shaped eyes.



1st: Barker, Mrs P. SH CH EUSANIT SILVER DREAM MACHINE. From the top drawer, lots to like and has all the essentials. Loads of breed type just that extra spring in the step gave him the slight edge over second.RDCC

Class VD (4 Entries) Abs: 0


1st: Davies, Miss M J. KATMISTSKY'S SOUL DREAM. What a cracking dog. He excels in breed type and is overall constructionally sound. Correct proportions from height to depth and also body length to height. Excellent, solid, strong topline through to well-placed tail. He has superb angulation front and rear without excess in any way. He is firm and solid and short in loin. Good ribbing all through. He’s got the most pleasing head of correct wedge shape. Most appealing expression and correct ear set. Clean and tight in lip. Today he was fully coated, mature and fit. The final appeal for me over his competitors was on the move, as he displayed correct reach and drive teamed with that distinctive spring unique to his breed. I was most delighted to see him take Best Veteran in Group in strong competition today. Most uplifting was the roar of camaraderie from his fellow exhibitors when he won both the C.C. and Best of Breed. So sporting and a joy to be part of.

2nd: Strevens, Miss H.SH CH ERIKACHEN CONAIRE AT TOLLISTY JW SH.CM SHCEX. Another who moves well and put down here in great condition with similar constructional attributes. Has a nice head and eye and well placed ears. Just not as compact as one. Moved well.

Thank you very much for bringing these lovely girls for me to assess today. I was spoilt for choice in this strong Open class and decisions really were hair splitting. Two super movers headed this class.


1st: Strevens, Miss H. SH CH TOLLELKIN CAIFE GAELACH AT TOLLISTY CC. Just a shade more leg than her closest contender. Has excellent proportions all through. Balanced angulations fore and aft. Full, well sprung ribs, deep and carried back to muscular loin. Good in quarters and excellent topline. Correct set of croup. Presented in full coat of good condition and super musculature. Pretty head with no excess. She never stopped showing and I found her so attractive on the move. BCC


2nd: Pashley, Miss S. WAKADUZE WAH PEN DAH SKA. A shade more upper arm than one but I just preferred the leg length of one for overall balance to my eye. She too has all the essentials and is certainly one to watch. She has a very nice head. Is not overdone in any way and is so light on her feet. I liked her very much, thank you for bringing her.


3rd: Westwood, Mrs T & Westwood, Miss S & Mcdonald. IR CH EUSANIT GONNA MAKE YOU A STAR
