Windsor Dog Show Society

JAPANESE SPITZ

I thank the committee for the opportunity to award my first set of CC s in this breed, having been passed for a cancelled ’19 appointment, and the exhibitors for their support and a quality entry. Firstly, a couple of observations, rear movement is still an issue within the breed, a couple of exhibits who at first glance might have placed higher were penalised when movement was taken into account. One positive was I didn’t find so many light eyes which had been an issue when last I judged them. On this occasion coats were not at their best as quite a few were changing , possibly being affected by the recent hot weather.

Moderately angulated rear, scores on the move with light brisk gait which is true. Congratulations on Veteran Group 3.

Strong ,slightly arched neck to a well ribbed body for age.Moderate rear angulation. His rear movement was not the best and I hope this will firm up as he develops as he presents a good outline.

1 & CC Ferrys’ FERRYBELLE’S TAKE COVER JW, I had judged this excellent exhibit in an AV class as a puppy where she really impressed me.

Good legs and tidy feet. Nicely ribbed body, highset tail.Moderately angulated rear, carried a nicely presented jacket. She really comes into her own on the move where her light brisk action is so true and moving around the ring presents a good profile.So pleased to hear that the CC made her up.There must be many more to follow.
