1st Copper’s Mary Wells P/S Bitch. Good head, well used ears, dark eye with a lovely expression. Adequate fore chest, good spring of rib with good depth, good layback of shoulder and return of upper arm. Lovely flow from neck in to topline, with good tail set and carriage. Nicely muscled throughout and low hocks used well, matching angulation front and rear. Good coat colour and texture presented very well. Moved with reach and drive looking especially good in profile and accurate on the out and back, handled beautifully. BOB. Nice to hear she was shortlisted in the group too.

2nd Moorcroft’s Tammux Elementary Watson B/S Dog. An up to size dog without being too course or heavy set. Masculine head with good proportions, dark eye and typical schnauzer look. Has some fore chest and ok in upper arm. Not quite the depth or spring of rib as 1. Good tail set. Good coat texture and colour, could be shorter to enhance his look. Looked nice in profile holding himself well just had a tendency to move a little close behind on the away.
