I would like to thank the officers and committee for their kind invitation to judge at, what was the last show for East of England. A beautiful setting, with lovely rings and very fine, if a little hot weather. A huge thank you to the exhibitors for their entry, in these difficult times and being on a weekday. Delighted with all the dogs I had the opportunity to judge, they are all a real credit to you.

1ST 2031 - Alanea Mirror Image (Mrs A Tattersall)
Cracking happy and outgoing 17 month old dog, still a little raw but certainly one to watch for the future. He presents a shapely and balanced outline, with a lovely flow to him. He has a delightful head, clean cut and beautifully balanced. Good length of neck with a slight arch, firm level topline, falling away a fraction at the croup. Well bodied, with the brisket well let down, and a good development of forechest. Strong and muscular hindquarters which he put to good use on the move to show good drive and clean rear movement. Lovely pearly white coat and rich red patches. A star of the future

Of a different type to winner, but also a quality bitch. Only 14 months and a little raw at present. Think she will be like a fine wine, and blossom into a beautiful girl.

Neck flowing smoothly into a firm and well held topline. Brisket is down to the elbow, not quite the fill in of forechest of winner. Good oval bone, feet a little flat at present.
