Judge's Critiques

I was honored to be invited to judge at the Alaskan Malamute Club of the United Kingdom annual championship show. I was gratified by both the size of the entry and the quality of the dogs. I was looking for dogs which exemplified the standard of the Breed and whose positive attributes were consistent with our Breed priorities. We want, of course, a dog that would be able to survive and to work in the primitive environment for which he was intended.

MPD. (12) These were all excellent quality puppies
1. Catua A Kind of Majyc This puppy had a nice coat, good head, good feet, and moved well. I would have liked a better tail.
2. Arctictrek Smok n Mirrors This puppy had a nice head, good tail, good coat, and moved well. I would have liked a tighter foot and more underjaw.
3. Icewolf A Touch of Frost This puppy had a nice head and coat. I would have liked a better front; he also needs to be more secure in the ring.

PD. (19,2) These were all excellent quality puppies.
l. Polarpaws Pari Mi Gucci He had a nice head, moved well and had a good coat. I would have liked a looser tail.
2. Catua Bohemian Rhapsody This puppy moved well and had a good coat. I would have liked a darker eye and looser tail.
