1 Beeson. Esined Starburst

Very pretty and balanced 6 month old puppy with nice head,eye shape and colour. She has good front and rear angulation,correct reach of neck and nice tight feet.Moved true going away and back. Best Puppy

2 Beeson Esined Jelly Tot

Litter sister to first who didn’t have the reach of neck her sister had. She is nicely balanced with good bone and correct front and rear angulation. Just a little nervous on the move so not making the most of herself.

Best of Breed

2 Phipps-Baker and Baker Madhouse Never to Much JW

I really liked this 2 year old bitch, nothing flashy, a lovely size and has such a pretty head,dark eye and expression.Good front and rear angulation and nice tight feet.She moved steadily holding a good topline and tail set but lacked the animation of the dog.
