German Spitz (Klein)

Dogs

Puppy

1: HUNTLEY, Mrs Jessica Fecimus Brother Bear, 7-month-old who presents a pleasing picture. His head and expression are decent, with pleasing proportions. Well coated, he is the correct shape underneath. On the move he put on the more polished performance and kept his outline

2: FRANCIS, Mr Dale & PEARCE, Mr Gary Longsdale's Dance With Me, 9-month-old who is super for type and shape. To go over there is little to change, and he has a super coat of good texture. I liked his head and expression, and he is perfect for size. However, today was not his day on the move as his mind was certainly elsewhere. He will better days.

Junior

1: ANDREW, Ms Karoline Claran Court Your Breath, 14-month-old of true spitz outline and type. He is a really beautiful shape and is excellent to go over on the table. He has a masculine head without being overdone. His carriage is exceptional, and he is as sound as a bell. Yes, he is in between coats at the moment but this only enhances his outline. Certain champion. RCC

Post Grad

1: ROGERSON, Miss L J NOSREGOR TAKE IT ALL, super temperament and very showy. He is up to size but has the correct spitz shape. Decent expressions and very attentive to his handler. Moved on the right track.

Open

1: FRANCIS, Mr D & PEARCE, Mr G Ch Longsdale's Blame It On Me, fully mature and super smart, this boy screams type. He is in wonderful coat of the correct texture. Square in outline with a relatively short neck. Strong in topline and a well set and carried tail. On the move he is precise, stylish and correct in stride. CC & BOB

2: FRANCIS, Mr D & PEARCE, Mr G Longsdale's Cesar Chance, really liked this young lad and he too is super for type and outline. Between coats at the moment. Loved his head and expression. On the move he had moments of brilliance, but he needed to concentrate more to challenge the winner harder.

3: CHAMBERS, Mrs J & GEPP-COX, Mrs B S J Ch Bemojo Pearls of Wisdom at Musique

Veteran

1: FRANCIS, Mr D & PEARCE, Mr G Ch Longsdale Willie Win JW, what a super pair of old boys both 12 years old and both belying their age. This is a very smart dog of correct spitz type. He has a super head and expression, in perfect coat and well presented. Still so sound on the move

2: JACKSON, Mrs A E & MINSHALL, Mrs F J Ch Holbain Just Like Bill, liked this old boy too and he has the correct outline for the breed. His expression is enchanting, and he has wonderfully clean teeth for his age. In excellent condition. He just didn’t move out as well as the winner today.

Bitches

Puppy

1: FRANCIS, Mr D & PEARCE, Mr G Longsdale's Sweet Nothin's, 9 month and already very much all of a piece. Delightful outline, correct in action and in wonderful condition. I liked her head and expression, and she has an assured future. RCC & BP

2: CHAMBERS, Mrs J & ALLISON, Mrs Niki BARBARITA BEST BEAST (import Latvia), nearly 7 month and the most enchanting expression. She is very feminine and is decent to go over. She moves on the right track but just needs to concentrate in profile. This will come and she will have a lot of fun, I’m sure. In super condition.

Open

1; ROGERSON, Miss L J Ch NOSREGOR SISTER SLEDGE, a very lovely typical bitch of correct spitz outline. In between coats but it is of excellent texture. On the move she is precise and carries herself very well. Delightful head and expression. CC

Veteran

1: FRANCIS, Mr D & PEARCE, Mr G Ch Longsdale's Dilemma, 8-year-old of super type and in wonderful condition. She has a super outline, decent head and expression and moves with style and soundness.

2: SERMAN, Mrs C WYCHLEA LADY IN THE MIRROR BY TYMY, 11-year-old in wonderful condition and such a delightful temperament. She is correct in outline and is well within size. Excellent coat for her age and she moved on the right track in profile. Just not as clean as the winner coming towards me.
