Thank you to the WCOW committee for this appointment, very accommodating and friendly. A huge thank you to those who entered after a busy day judging at Welsh Kennel Club first. A good atmosphere with plenty of support. Thank you to my wonderful stewards also.

Special Award Junior Dog or Bitch

1st Wheeler’s - Ranveli Diki Diki - Well where do I begin, he was real treat to judge. Striking light brindle in colour. Super shape, in proportion with gentle rise over his loin and not overdone with his rear quarters, but standing over ground. Clean head, strong jaw and pleasant expression. Neck of good length. Excellent shoulder placement. Chest was correct shape for age. Lovely underline. Effortlessly moved around a good sized ring with good foot placement. True coming and going. Expect a bright future.

2nd Smeath’s - Royaltour Storm Minime At Willingwisp - Another smart youngster who impressed. Darker brindle, good overall shape, with delightful feminine expression and clean flow to her topline. Neat ears and head shape. Good neck with strength. Lovely lay of shoulder leading to straight front. Good shape to her chest and ribs of good length. Good underline also. Strong loin leading to well set hips and well made rear. Good bend to her stifle. Moved true coming and going and covered the ground well around the ring. Look forward to her developing.
