GD 2(0)

Two headstrong boys full of themselves.

1. Garvey’s Richtig Rahue JW. Exuberant young male of 21 months, lovely masculine head with well set ears and good eye, good length of neck with well laid back shoulder, lovely angles fore and aft, straight legs of good bone and correct feet, sound in top-line, once he settled he showed good reach and drive with clean movement in all directions, BD & RBOB.

2. Dorn/Adey’s Valger Tennessee. Another promising male of 16 months, lovely masculine head with expressive eye, well laid back in shoulder with good body proportions, straight legs of good bone with correct feet, liked his angulation fore and aft, moved well when he eventually settled, he was a real handful today for his owner but I think he has a very bright future.

PB 3(1)

1. Winkler’s Chevinpoint Lime Meadow. Pleasing bitch of 9 months with a lovely feminine head and dark eye, good neck and sound body proportions with firm top-line, not quite the angulation of 2 but she moved out with confidence and was steady on the move in all directions, presented and shown in lovely condition, BP.

2. Drew’s Redmires Thriller at Archerpoint. More my type, a lovely young bitch of 9½ months who had lots of quality, feminine head and expression, sound top-line and lovely angulation throughout, her proportions were correct and she was balanced, today she was very unsettled standing and on the move but with more confidence she has a very bright future.

1. Maclean/Bowie/McClenaghen’s Richtig Ritzfizz. 21 months and litter mate to BD, feminine head and expression, would like a little more neck but she was nicely angulated with good body proportions, presented in good coat and condition, she moved well with an easy free stride.

2. Winkler’s Chevinpoint Lime Meadow. Repeat.
