Judge – Michael Blay (Longbarrow)

BRACCO ITALIANO

Puppy. 2,0

1.Lawrence: Bonbon Bonny A Dream of Agatha (Imp NLD). B. Liked her shape and size when settled, finer in type than 2, clean head with good planes, enough body on her for her age, more settled on the move showing good lines in a small ring. 2.Gatfield: Heinaaron L’altra Dimensione (AI)(Imp FIN). D. heavier set dog than 1, a bit nervy on the day, good shape to him, but preferred movement of 1.

Post Grad. 2,1

1.Northley: Jakobstown One Fine Day. D. Impressive O/W male with an attitude about him, good head shape with correct length to muzzle with lean cheeks and spongy nose, correct skull to muzzle ratio, deep in chest and strong body with good shape to rear, moved ok with a driving action, but would benefit from a larger ring to really show his extended gait, pleased to give him BOB, and then watch him go all the way to BIS.

Open. 1,0

1.Gatfield: Heinaaron Tofana Di Rozes. D. Chestnut male starting to show his age, good head shape with correct planes, correct through neck and shoulders, deep brisket, found him thicker around the waist than I would prefer, good angles behind, moved ok, but another who would have benefited from a larger ring.
