1st: Mcnally’s Ch Conekesheved Too Shy JW. Immediately caught my attention by her eye-catching stance and superb ring presence. A very typical bitch who stands freestanding, beautifully balanced and holds her outline well on the move. Lovely head of good proportions, dark eye and correct bite; large teeth.
