1st – Susu Prince Charming ShCEx (Miss O Thompson)
This veteran male is of a nice type, masculine type. He has a well-proportioned head with a correct eye and is slightly undershot. I would, however, prefer a touch more definition to the chin to finish his head off nicely. He stands true both fore and aft, with correct hare feet, and presents a well-balanced outline with correct angulations and a level topline. He is well ribbed back with a correct tail set. Moved soundly from all angles and was well presented and handled. A credit to his owner.

He presents a balanced and correct outline with good angulation both fore and aft. His ribcage is well sprung which is well ribbed back. Although he moves a little close behind, his movement remains sound and stylish. Moved soundly from all angles and was well presented and handled. A credit to his owner.

His forechest is well developed for his age, and he shows correct angulation front and rear. His ribcage is well sprung for his age and well ribbed back. He moved well in profile and from behind; his front action is still a little unsettled, but that’s to be expected at this age—he’s full of character and enthusiasm. Handled and presented well.

He has a well-developed forechest and has good angulation both fore and aft. His ribcage has a decent spring and is well carried back. He has correct hare feet and moved well.
