PD 2(0) 1. Pike/Carter’s Tsoyu Wakahiko Go Breezelyn. Very smart youngster, only 6 months and raw but actually very collected with lots to like, small almond shaped eyes that are obliquely set, ears hooded and in balance and proportion to skull, straight forelegs, still needs to drop in his rear, good definition of hock, positive mover, nice type, will have a good future I’m sure, BP. 2. Fiddes’ Awa Ryozo Go Jr Matsunaga Jp (imp JPN). Again another youngster, preferred proportions on winner, good stop, has correct furrow, straight muzzle, ears could be a little smaller, good bone and feet, firm top-line, prefer more definition in hock and slightly stronger rear, tail well set, different type to 1. OD 4(0) Nice class to sort out. 1. Thompson/Fowkes’ Hokushou Go Daruma Kensha Wjw’24 (imp ITA). Won on his type and balance, super head with correct proportions, eyes well set, thick slightly hooded ears of correct size, good bone, developed cheeks, firm top-line with moderate rear, rear could be a little stronger but I liked his balance and proportions along with breed type, in lovely coat and condition. BD. 2. Duffield’s Meiho Kensha Akioshiro Go. Also a nice quality dog, good eye placement, dark well set and almond shaped, ears could be a little smaller for ideal, sound mover, excellent condition, straight forelegs, ok feet, ribs of fair length, sturdy balance to him, like 1 is in good condition and shows well, nice dog but just preferred the head type of 1. RBD. 3. Bennett’s Ir/Nld Ch. Seijitsu Amafumi Go Tsoyu. PB 2(0) 1. Thomas’ Kazan No Visis avec Nosferatu (imp FRA). Has strength and substance to this youngster with good bone, ears well set and correct size, nicely made front with straight forelegs, tight black lips, has some arch to her neck without being too extreme, good ribs, at the minute she is a little high in the rear but with time should drop, low set hocks, has good definition in hock, movement wise she has a stride to her, she just needs to settle in top-line. 2. Pike/Carter’s Tsoyu Yuizuki Go Breezelyn. A very raw young baby, has good proportions to her, straight forelegs, pleasing head, preferred ear shape and position of 1, low set hocks with good width in her rear quarters, tail a little flat, needs time. PGB 3(1) 1. Thompson/Chapman’s Tsoyu Urakohime Go. Really liked the type, balance and proportions of this brindle bitch, full of quality throughout, excellent head proportions, has some width to her skull which is flat, defined stop with correct furrow and shaped muzzle, triangular dark eye,excellent neck without dewlap, strong with slight crest, super front, forelegs, ribs and feet, muscled loin, high set tail, moderate rear angulation with definition of hock, on the move she places her feet well, has an easy gait to her with a rhythmic action, carries her head well, lovely type, best mover of the day and today my BB & BOB. 2. Buckley’s Matsukita Satomi to Tsoyu. A bitch that is a little bit narrow in skull for ideal and needs to develop in cheek, correct bone, good leg length, ideally would like more depth of chest, moderate rear angulation, well set tail, round feet, not as free and collected on the move as 1, has some good parts to her. OB 4(0) 1. Duffield’s Meiho Kawai Hana Go. Feminine head, small almond shaped eyes, hooded ears set well, I liked her proportions, excellent front, feet and forelegs, ribs of good length, places her front well on the move, moderate rear angulation, up to size but has good proportions to her, pushed hard for BB, just preferred the rear quarters on the move of my BB, RBB. 2. Bennett’s Seijitsu No Bishoujo. A stronger bitch, good skull, defined stop but clear furrow, excellent cheeks, straight forelegs, moderate neck, just preferred the proportions on 1, low set hocks, tail carriage could be a little higher, in good condition, in nice body and coat, dark pigment. 3. Thompson/Chapman’s Tsoyu Tamashino Go.
