Bearded Collie

Puppy (2,0)

What a super start to the day with these two poppets, both minor puppies.

1. Lewis & Moreland’s Potterdale Prime Rose Taf

Very well balanced and confident baby, very classic in outline with correct proportions and nice bone, totally feminine, very well-muscled for her age, liked her head and eye with such a soft expression, strength to muzzle, very nice neck and layback of shoulder, firm topline and ribs well sprung for age, strong in rear and moved soundly off low set hocks, well coated and prepared and handled to advantage, promises very well for the future BP.

2. Steer-Eldridge’s Gwalltafwyn Gwenllian

Confident and typical youngster, a little finer than 1 but again well proportioned, lean and lithe with length from the rib, still to develop and broaden in skull, nice neck and front with chest developing, full of fun on the move, sound and parallel holding a good topline with tail well carried.

Special Yearling (9,4)

1. Edward’s Breaksea It's Time At Nellbrook

Very feminine bitch with substance but no cloddiness, lovely balanced head, proportionate to her frame and a soft expression, with width to jaw. Well balanced all through, with correct height to length ratios, length from the rib with a short loin. Tail well set and carried. Held a firm topline moving, covered the ground well. Well-fitting coat, very close decision between her and the lovely male placed 2nd, splitting hairs, very nice prospect.

Lovely masculine dog with a super head, proportionate to his frame with a pleasing expression from dark eyes. Good length of arched neck with layback of shoulder and good upper arm, well bodied retaining leanness in outline with length coming from his rib, balanced rear angulation, moves with reach and drive, coat changing, super youngster.

Nice dog with a good head and expression, liked his overall make and shape, well-muscled with a good chest and rib, firm level topline, enough neck, sound in rear, he had a well-fitting harsh coat, a little heavy which made him look chunky but he was lean and active.
