Well muscled neck set smoothly into well laid shoulders. Deep, well ribbed body with minimal tuck up. Muscular well angulated hindquarters. Lovely feet, has correct texture to his coat. His movement was a joy to watch. He powered round the ring on an effortless relaxed stride maintaining a correct topline. CC & BOB 2nd: 343 LITTLEMORE, Miss C Sh Ch Inostricani Bell Ragazzo Via Krismoor JW. I have previously awarded this young man BOB at an open show and my opinion of him has not changed.

What a beautiful young lady, I loved her. She is quality with excellent breed type. Well shaped, balanced feminine head with pronounced occiput. Square in outline with strong bone and so balanced throughout. Good depth and underline. Her well developed hindquarters are broad with good bend of stifle. Unfortunately today she disliked the slippery surface of the floor and so I could not assess her movement.

Her footfall was precise but her dislike for the floor prevented her from showing me what she was capable of on the move RCC 3rd: Class 176 VB (2 Entries) Abs: 0 1st: 349 WAGH, Mrs & Mr D & D Sh Ch Prottino Del Vera By Dewdhala.
