WORKING GROUP
Firstly I would like to say that this Group was worthy of a Championship show,
some wonderful exhibits and some really tough competition in there. Thank
you to the other judges for putting forward some incredible BOBs in the
working group.
G1 Rottweiler. Impressive overall balance, well laid back shoulders and
plenty of bone and substance, well muscled and moved like a dream, great
drive from the rear and great reach in front and completely harmonious.
G2 Leonberger.
G3 Newfoundland. Good overall balance and covered ground well, turned
out immaculately.
G4 Canadian Eskimo Dog. Still immature but very promising, good overall
balance, moved with fluidity, nice easy gait and again turned out immaculately.
WORKING PUPPY GROUP
PG1 Rottweiler. Absolutely adored this puppy, it was stand away for me, good
bone, drive on the move and just an overall picture of what I think a Rottweiler
should be.
PG2 Great Dane. Still very immature but full of promise, great bone, an air of
‘dash and dare’ and nobility.
PG3 Newfoundland. With good overall balance and again fluidity on the move
but very much a puppy action but as the Great Dane was typical for a large
breed.
PG4 BMD. Nice overall balance, good muscle, still coming together in front
which you would expect from a puppy but overall a very pleasing group.
