Judge: Marina White

BEST IN SHOW Ellen’s Klassna Thats My Dream, Pomeranian. An absolute cracker and a real showman who just kept catching my eye. The most exquisite and bright expression, well set ears, slightly oval, shaped eyes, fine-boned and straight forelegs and strong and straight rear, super compact in profile and gait was free moving and brisk, tail carried high and well over the back, presented in glorious coat.

RESERVE BEST IN SHOW Westron’s Farlap Kaleb, Bloodhound, an absolute stallion of a hound, upstanding and unmistakably masculine, in superb clean condition and well-muscled throughout, he strode into the ring with such confidence and with a dignified and noble air about him and tracked up and down so well.

BEST PUPPY IN SHOW Ridgewell’s Kontrastas Majestic Martin, White Swiss Shepherd Dog. A very impressive White Swiss full of breed type and so sound on the move, he had great bone, and a gorgeous head with high set ears and an alert expression. He carried his long tail low on the move and demonstrated great footfall on the move. In tip top coat and condition.

RESERVE BEST PUPPY IN SHOW Stillman’s Vadeliza Devil's Got Me At Maidendale, Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Very close up to the White Swiss was this quality Staffy b, who was gleaming from head to toe, she has the most beautiful head, with great breadth of skull and strong muzzle and correct bite. Her forefront was so very well constructed and she had powerful and well angulated rear legs to powerfully drive her around the ring correctly in all directions.

BEST VETERAN IN SHOW Coldwell’s CH/JSY CH Zentaur This Is Jam Hot AI JW ShCEx OSW, Newfoundland. This stunning bitch topped one of the best BVIS competitions I have ever judged. Every group winner was a credit to their owners and I was splitting hairs on choosing the top winners. This quality brown Newfoundland I have given a RCC and today she looked better than ever. For a giant breed to be in this superb condition comes down to massive dedication from her owners. Her shape and size is just fantastic and her movement is virtually textbook. Underneath that coat, her construction is so good and she is well muscled up. I wish she was mine!

RESERVE BEST VETERAN ON SHOW Blackley & Colero’s Cooleela Operation Dynamo Wightroche VW ShCEx, Cocker Spaniel. An incredible Cocker who is defying his age. Think I judged him as a puppy and did well under me then, he’s developed into such a gorgeous dog with so much breed type. An exquisite head with beautiful domed skull and such sweet expression, he moved with such vigour round the ring at the end of a long day, with that typical merry attitude. His coat and general condition was faultless and he became hard to ignore amongst these stunning veterans.

He has the most incredible shape in profile, such a dignified pose, with the best of fronts, depth of chest, strong straight forelegs and powerful quarters to match. I just felt he didn’t move his best on this surface today so had to give way for his younger kennel mate.

Moved well in all directions. 2 Simpson’s Purple Rain Chico Valuer at Dacfolke (Imp Pol). 6 year old male with a large head, strong muzzle, well coated and a nice mover, excellent depth of chest, good lay back of shoulder, long low set tail.
