Up to size black bitch but well constructed and very balanced in her angulation front and rear. Could be a little cleaner through the front, she has straight forelegs well boned and good feet. Level topline which she retains when moving. Just coming back into coat, showed steadily.

GRADUATE BITCH (8, 2 abs)

Short compact body, well ribbed, strong level topline and tail well set and carried. Her strong quarters were well muscled. At an in between stage with her coat but what she had was of pleasing texture. Distracted moving with a change of handler, did not do her justice. 

POST GRADUATE BITCH (16, 3abs) 

1st DARMILYE DALMORE 

One who caught my eye on the first look round for her clean lines and excellent balance. Chocolate bitch of exemplary colour, this bitch has an appealing head, her eyes compliment her coat colour and are correct in shape, good length of muzzle, skull of correct shape, ears well set and carried. Strong neck, shoulders well placed, good length of upper arm, just right for bone and standing on excellent feet.

Strong, wide well developed quarters, very well muscled, hocks are well let down. Moving straight and true and really covering the ground in profile, with minimal effort. Her coat is short and dense of excellent texture. Attentive to her handler, showing non-stop and presented in immaculate order. CC her first and RBIS on the referee’s decision.

Well angulated rear, strong well muscled quarters which she used to advantage moving, in full double coat of pleasing texture. Moves out well particularly in profile, considered her for the RCC.
