SPANIEL COCKER

P (1)

1st Burton’s SANDANCA TAKING CHANCES FOR DREAMIST (D) 10 months O/R

Although he stood alone there was much to like about this lovely puppy and he deserved his place. He was eye catching, well-balanced and sturdy when stacked. Flat silky coat, well-feathered in all the right places, presented in super condition. Square muzzle, moderate neck, legs well-boned with lovely well-padded feet, plenty of substance overall. Sound and steady on the move for one so young. Confident and merry nature. Pleased to award him BP.
