Hungarian Vizsla

P (3,2)

1. Ward & Harrison’s Glenbrows Blush at Tantaraviz. BPIB. 10 month old B. Liked her type and outline. Well proportioned head, which is lean, with moderate stop and correct ear set. Moderately long neck, would prefer a better layback of shoulder but has a good return of upper arm, and a correct level back. Straight forelegs and good feet. She has a good spring of rib and a decent width of thigh. Moved ok, if a little stilted in front at present.

1. Newton’s Nevedith Thunder Bolt. 18 month old D. Loved his type, and balanced outline. Lovely lean and noble but masculine head, with correct proportions and squared off muzzle. Kind eye a shade darker than coat. He got better as he relaxed more in the class. Moderately long neck, with arch, flows into good shoulder placement and smoothly into a level topline with a short back. Well muscled over loin and at the rear, with good width of thigh. He moved well, but not as forward in his movement in the challenge for BOB today.

2. Hardy & Phillips’s Nevedith Golden Reign at Szelfuto JW. 18 month B and litter sister to 1 and another lovely exhibit. Balanced in outline. Gorgeous feminine head and expression. Head is lean with work, and a lovely eye colour. Good front assembly with an excellent return of upper arm. Level topline but just preferred the shorter back of 1. Moved out around the ring on a good stride.

1. Wiblin’s Kenzduo Atina. 3 year old B. Medium size with a correct proportioned head, a moderate stop, squared off muzzle and good ear set.  The handler needs to pull her head out more, so her neckline runs smoother into her shoulders, as it spoils her outline. I found her a little wide in front than I would like. Correct level topline and short back. She has moderate angulation throughout. Moved out in profile on a good stride.

O (2,1)

1. Hardcastle & Bradley’s Castledogley Firenze JW. 3 year old medium sized bitch, liked her for her balanced and clean outline. Beautiful feminine head, which is lean and noble, kind expression and correct eye colour, with a good ratio of muzzle and skull. Straight forelegs and correct feet. Moderately long neck, which fits well into her shoulders. She has an excellent front assembly with a good layback of shoulder and return of upper arm. Short in back. Ribs well sprung and chest deep to elbows. She moved around the ring on a good stride, which was steady and smooth. BOB.

2. Jarvis’s Settersay Targaryen Lowdon. 2 year old B. She wasn’t too happy being gone over today but I liked what I did see, she just needs time to mature. Liked her for her clean outline. Pretty head which was well proportioned with domed skull, dark eye, correct ear set and good stop. She has balanced angulation fore and aft, and a level topline. She moved out ok.

2. Reay’s Drurylowe Sage. 9 month old D. Not the outline of 1, and has a more exaggerated topline being higher at the rear. Correct head proportions with a low ear set. Straight forelegs and good layback of shoulder. He had little bend of stifle, which made his movement a bit stilted behind.

SY (4)

1. Bovio’s Star at Station. 16 month old B. She stood out for me today as she is so well balanced in outline and is a square robust dog with excellent bone. Beautiful head of the correct proportions with divergent head planes, human like expression and correct ear set. Straight forelegs, good feet, excellent front assembly with a short powerful neck flowing into a correct layback of shoulder. Her topline is correct and held well on the move. Good width to thigh and a good bend of stifle. All contributed to her moving out on a free and easy stride and maintaining her outline, just a tad proud of her tail. BOB.

Balanced front and rear angulation and she is correct in topline. Straight forelegs and good bone. She was carrying a little bit too much weight today, but still moved out well.

2. Mann’s Make A Splash. 20 month old D. Preferred the outline and overall type of 1. Really liked his head proportions, divergent planes and kind expression. Short neck into a correct layback of shoulder and decent upper arm. I did find him to be slightly longer than square in profile. He did move round the ring on a very good free and easy stride.
