Veteran Dog (2)

1. Taliesyn Black Walnut

Attractive masculine dog with a pleasing silhouette, if just enough length of leg. Typical head, somewhat rounded skull, well set and carried ears. Some more front teeth might have come in handy. Correct expression and nose length. Very moderate neck. Well angulated in front. Firm topline, good tailset and quite good tail carriage. Balanced angulation behind. He moved light on his feet, retaining his balance, if wide behind. Very good top coat with just some underwool.Best Veteran.

2. Melangel Zachary at Lindanwaye

Richly coated dog, well proportioned. Could use his ears to better advantage on the day. Good rise of neck. Firm topline, well set tail, but he carried it straight up on the move. Very good silky coat quality. Not as light on his feet on the move, but parallel going away.

Minor Puppy Dog (2)

1. Lastayla Playful Pongo

Eight mons old, well grown dog for his age. Masculine head with pleasing proportions, I would not want any more stop than this. Quite good ears. Excellent pigmentation. Long neck that he used to his advantage. Well angulated in front. He does not need any longer body than this and could be firmer in his topline. Well set and carried tail. In a very good puppy coat. Smart mover.

2. Yeldaehs Mr Fezzywig

At seven months old, this is a very elegant dog with pleasing body proportions. Still needs to gain some more masculinity, especially in his head and more strength of muzzle. Enough neck. Firm topline. That tail is awaiting its shape. Well angulated behind. He kept his balance on the move, but is rather high stepping in front at this time.

Puppy Dog (6)

1. Braunswood Mask of Zorro By Melangel

A very attractive, typical Papillon, in a class of himself. His head still has to mature with time and is not his crowning glory. Well set and carried ears. Attractive nape of neck. Well angulated both ends. Excellent topline and body proportions. Very good tailset and tail carried high enough. In a typical silky coat. A very good mover indeed from all angles. I liked him a lot and predict a very good future. Best Puppy.

2. Panspayon Starlite Express

Elegant white and black dog, not as collected as the winner. Reasonable head but his round eyes give him a rather staring expression. Good ears with plenty of coat already. Very moderately angulated in front. Firm topline, if somewhat sloping. Well set tail. In a good silky coat without much undercoat. Looked his best on the move from the side as he is quite stylish.

3. Lastayla Playful Pongo

Junior Dog (4,1)

1. Inixia Glamorous Boy

A smart and stylish dog, especially on the move. Excellent overall shape and balance. Very pleasing skull and ears. Could do with a little more length of muzzle. Firm topline, well set and carried tail. Overall very well constructed with excellent angulation both ends. Just slightly east, west standing in front, but straightening out on the move as he is quite parallel. Moved very light on his feet and well balanced from the side. In a very good silky coat. The more I looked at him the better I liked him. Res CC.

2. Inixia Glamorous Boy at Jhanakia

A young looking dog, a little leggy at this time. Strong skull, deep stop. Large ears, well set and carried. Good rise of neck. Needs to widen in his body and gain some more weight. Quite well set tail, but carried rather flatly. Pleasing body proportions and correctly angulated behind. He could be more stable in movement coming and going, but is quite stylish from the side.

3. Ookiimmi Ticketyboo

Post Graduate Dog (5)

1. Baillion Be Unique

An eye-catching, elegant and dainty dog with plenty of quality about him. Expressive eyes, medium sized ears, well set. Overall a lot of elegance about his head as well. Moderately angulated in both ends, he balanced well. Firm topline, well set tail, carried with some lift to it. In a very lovely coat of excellent structure, I would not want any more of it. Very enthusiastic on the move and his energy is at times hard to contain, but at other times he moved well.

2. Elendil Knights Templar at Inixia

Another instantly attractive dog, stronger, scoring in construction, he is very well made with excellent angulation both ends. I would not want a strong head nor any more bone than this. Excellent ears and eyes, strong neck, excellent topline, well set tail. He has a good silky coat, but with some underwool. A sound mover.

3. Elendil San Miguel

2. Feyetas Love Me Tender

Another attractive dog, Elegant, including his head, but a bit too round in his skull for my preference. Moderate neck and front angulation. He could stand somewhat firmer over his legs. Excellent topline and good tailset, well carried. Moderate angulation behind. In a very good coat, still showing good daylight under him. Rather inconsistent on the move, could at times be better co/ordinated, but at other times moved quite well.

3. Elendil Crusader

Special Beginners (2)

1. Baillion Be Unique

2. Bresars L’essensiale

A very elegant puppy. At this time he has grown up on his legs and now needs to settle down into his angulation. Attractive head, but the ears are too upright. Long neck. Firm topline, needs to gain more weight and body. Stylish mover with plenty of carriage and presence.

Veteran Bitch (1)

1. Taliesyn Wild Tansey

Nine year old, small bitch, could do with some more length of leg. Quite attractive feminine head, good expression. Would have preferred more teeth to assess her mouth correctly. Rather small ears. Very moderate neck and front angulation. Firm topline, good tailset, the tail is quite well carried. Well angulated behind. She moved stable in front, wide behind, enthusiastic from the side.

Minor Puppy Bitch (2)

1. Lastayla Perfect Purdy

Already a show dog, this bitch did not put a foot wrong. Well constructed, she still needs to grow some more length of leg. Feminine, expressive head, ears in progress. Strong neck, well angulated in front and behind. Firm topline. She is carrying a bit puppy fat at this time and also a puppy coat with wool, but still showed elegance, particularly on the move. Very sound and with a good carriage from all angles.

2. Keomandis Phoebe For Altaya

Very elegant seven months old bitch. She scores in femininity. Head a work in progress, could do with some more strength of muzzle and bone. Very good neck, excellent topline, well set tail, but carried rather flat on the move. Excellent coat quality with minimal underwool. Moved very light on her feet.

Puppy Bitch (3,1)

1. Yeldaehs Miss Havisham

Elegant bitch, well up on legs and well proportioned, a little longer than tall. Very feminine head with attractive ears and dark eyes. Good rise of neck. Firm topline, well set and well carried tail. Moderate, balanced angulation both ends. Still needs to body up and gain some more substance and bone. Moved light on her feet and carried herself well.

2. Yeldaehs Madame Defarge at Keomandi

 Another quite attractive bitch, elegant and feminine and with pleasing proportions, but rather timid in her temperament today. Feminine head, I would not want any more stop than this. Very good ears. Firm topline. In a good coat. Did not quite know what to do with her tail on the day.

Junior Bitch (3)

1. Inixia Something Special

A very well constructed bitch as were all the dogs from this kennel. Head on the stronger side, but still feminine and expressive. Excellent ears. Made very good use of her ears. Excellent angulation both ends, excellent topline, well set and well carried tail. Coat under development. Moved very soundly and efficiently from all angles, carrying herself very well.

2. Ookiimmi Truly Precious at Yeldaeh

A feminine bitch on the fine side, she needs to gain some more bone and strength of muzzle with age, but is well balanced and well up on legs. Moderate angulation in front, very good topline, well set tail with some lift to it. Well angulated behind. Elegant on the move, but not the precision of the winner.

3. Jaynepaps Alsephina Vela

Post Graduate Bitch (5,1)

1. Lafford Ninja

Small, very feminine bitch, I would not want her any smaller than this, but she is well made and has a very attractive outline. Very feminine in head, excellent ears, expressive. Used her neck well both standing and moving. Could do with some more bone. Excellent topline, beautiful tail well set and very well carried. She is a sound mover from all angles, keeping her balance and outline.

2. Feyetas Petit Bon Bon For Altaya

Stronger bitch, still not too strong, Attractive expression even if she cannot quite decide what to do with her ears. Pleasing outline. Needs to stabilize in her front. Very good coat quality, but not a lot of it at this time. Less consistent in movement, at times fine, but needs to stabilize in her front movement.

3. Brandonburg Darkest Bloom At Taliesyn

Limit Bitch (5,1)

1. Panspayon Pennyroyale JW

Lovely bitch, just mu cup of tea. At two years old, she has it all. She is elegant, has substance, lovely proportions, typical expression, excellent ears, excellent construction with very pleasing angulation both ends. She is not small, but everything is in balance and proportion, but I would not like her any broader in front. A coat of very good quality and in lovely condition, even if a little underwool. A very sound and purposeful mover, at all times keeping her shape and balance. Beautiful symmetrical black and white colour. CC & BOB.

2. Melangel Gaily Georgia at Lindanewaye

Another attractive bitch, not dissimilar to the winner. Attractive head, not the neck of the winner and surely not the coat. Excellent feet, firm topline, well set tail. Moved quite well, but again not up to the winner.

3. Lilacrose Touch of Talent

Open Bitch (5,1)

1. Ch. Panspayon Jewel of the Nile

Excellent topline, well set and carried tail. Firm topline. In a rich coat without too much underwool. A very effective and well balanced mover, at all times keeping her balance, outline and tail. She turned out to be the dam of the CC-winner, but torday had to bow to her daughter. ResCC.

2. Panspayon Natasha JW

Small bitch, very feminine, with just enough substance, attractive head, prefers some more length of foreface. Pleasing ears. Just enough length of leg, but typically off quare.
