Class 81 – Graduate (2,1)

1st 151 – Cornstalk Naomi Aftonlee – Pretty 19 month old cream/white bitch who scores in front assembly . Long skull with good proportions, good ears, dark eye and good underjaw. Perfectly parallel and straight forelegs with excellent bone, strong pasterns and well arched feet. Long, clean neck into lovely sloping shoulders with a good return of upper arm. Elbow at brisket and nicely curved top and underlines. Balanced rear angulation with a low hock. She didn’t like the surface, which was a shame as it made her difficult to assess. Moved well when settled.

Nicely off at the croup with a well turned stifle, good width of thigh and strong powerful hocks. Moved with drive covering the ground, would prefer more width when moving away. Best of Breed.
