Chinese Cresteds

Thank you to the Chinese Crested Exhibitors for a lovely entry and a very nice atmosphere at ringside. I was very pleased with my winners, felt the quality was a lot better overall in the Males today and the temperaments were excellent.

Veteran Dog (1)

1. Bartlett’s, Michadaine Crazy For You, 9 years old powder puff, top size, in excellent condition for his age. Strong head but good proportions, good ear set, nice eye. Excellent reach of neck, good topline and he carries an excellent veil of long hair. Movement could have been a shade more positive in the rear. Best Veteran.

Best Puppy in Breed and pleased to award him the Reserve Dog CC today.
