German Shorthaired Pointer.

Graduate (5,0)

My top 3 were really hard to separate and I’m sure they could change places on another day.

1st) Powell & Tarrant’s Newtonbriar Pure Bliss. Topping this quality class was this 9 month old bitch. Presenting the most pleasing outline. Clean head, feminine and in proportion to body. Medium eye which is well set. Moderately long neck set onto sloping shoulders. Straight forelegs with good bone. Excellent, compact feet. Deep chest, well sprung rib, well muscled hindquarters and well bent stifle. Moved soundly, effortlessly covering the ground. BOB, BP & PG2.

Muscular neck leading onto sloping shoulders, forelegs straight and excellent feet. Developing well throughout the body and good hindquarters. Good topline and tail set. Moved soundly.

Both seen dogs from the previous class.

RBOB

2nd) Rorke’s Zakhan’s Diamond Jack. I really liked this male but he gave his handler/runner a very difficult time acting the clown which made it hard to assess him, I also think he would benefit from a bigger ring just so he can get into his stride. All male with no sign of coarseness, fantastic head qualities and the best of eyes. Particularly good front, sloping shoulders and straight forelegs. Deep chest and well sprung ribs, needs to body up but that will come with maturity. Well angulated hindquarters which are well muscled. When he managed to settled himself he moved really well.

Straight forelegs with plenty of bone and neat feet. Deep chest, well sprung rib with plenty of heart room. For me she is slightly long cast and I would prefer a little less rear angulation.

Clean neck of good length set into the best of shoulders. Well bodied, deep chest and well sprung ribs. Muscular loin of good length. Particularly good hindquarters with nothing over exaggerated. Excellent topline and tail set. Super mover and whilst she doesn’t have an abundance of coat you cannot take away from her quality. Her owner informed me that this win today gave her the final point for her JW. Well deserved, congratulations. BOB.
