Birmingham & District Dobermann Club

Many thanks to the Secretary and committee of this Club who gave me a warm welcome, I thoroughly enjoyed my day, thank you also to my steward Paul who kept the ring flowing. I was a little disappointed not to be judging this lovely breed outside where I am sure they could have showed their movement to better advantage, I love seeing working breeds moving on a spacious, natural surface, that said I was pleased with my overall winners.

1. Hutchison/Mycroft’s Supeta’s Big Hunk O’Love for Debison JW. Upstanding young male of 13 months, all male, strong head of good proportions with lovely eye and good ear-set, keen expression, straight front with compact feet and bone, good forechest, correct body proportions with good depth of chest, moved out well once settled but a dog I’m sure would come into his own in a large, outdoor ring, BD, RBIS & BOS.

2. Weston’s Lateagain Let Them All Talk. Another nice male of 15 months, well proportioned head, good eye and ear-set, nicely angulated all through but would have preferred him a little shorter in back, moved out well with good reach and drive.

1. Pollard/Cox’ Zeloviak Invictus with Whizzbean. 4 year old male with masculine head and good eye, straight front with good feet and bone, would have liked a better top-line but proportions were good, felt he was a little loose in rear and would like to see more drive from the rear.
