Lovely headed dog, lean skull, level head planes, clean cheeks, excellent almond shaped eye that is dark, excellent straight forelegs with compact feet, lean neck to him, nicely made front with good lay of shoulder, clean neck and back, ribs of fair length, could be a little bit shorter in loin, firm top-line, high set tail, nicely angled rear with good buttocks, good footfall, covers the ground well, very collected for age and a quality youngster, RDCC & BP.

2. Hickling’s Evalesco’s Shade of Class. Masculine headed dog, level head planes, high set ears, dark eyes, a little stronger in skull than 1, excellent bone, square in outline, muscular neck, could have a little bit better lay of shoulder but has straight forelegs, compact feet, correct top-line with slight slope from withers to tail, high set tail, strong rear quarters with vertical hocks, liked his shape, just not as fluid in the front as 1.

Little bit stronger than 2 but square in outline, masculine headed dog, level head planes, has good length to his skull, neat ears, strong muscular neck, lovely forechest, strong bone, feet could be a little bit more forward set, deep chest, good length of rib, correct top-line, well angled rear, low set hocks, he is a positive mover, slightly drops off in croup, lovely condition, has good breed points.

2. Kuhl’s Changathi Dobermann’s General (imp). Elegant dog, lovely length to his head, not overdone in cheek, ears could be a little bit smaller, like 1 has a clean neck, good forechest, lovely straight forelegs with compact feet, correct top-line, fraction longer cast than 1, high set tail, moderate bone, nice angles to his rear, he has good foot placement, just a fraction longer but I prefer the front on 1, needs to settle in front.

Nicely proportioned dog, masculine head with good length and strength but not overdone, medium size moderate bone, has depth to his chest, like 1 has good forehand, good top-line, shoulder could be a little better laid but he is shorter in loin 1 and a high tail set, not as collected on the go as 1, well angled rear, just needs to strengthen in hock, has type to him, just needs time.
