Critiques

PD (2,0)
1. Copley-Holland’s Katabatics This Is The Way – 11 months. Well boned pup, with good shape and balance. Feet could be larger. Super head with dark pigment and correct eye shape/set. Good fore chest and strong rear. Moved out well all ways.
2. Druce’s Kaskae Hell Of A View (A.I.) 9 1⁄2 mth baby with good head developing and dark pigment. Ears sl low set. Lovely outline and correct coat and tail set. Good feet. Chest needs to broaden, as one would expect at this age, and a touch loose in front coming towards.

JD (2,0)
1. Horsman & Horsman- Phoenix Snow Legend Zenith Of Fame Nordicwinds (Imp Rus) – Striking 12 mth sable youngster with an athletic frame and super character. Handsome head, with good back skull developing; good ear set with thick ear leather. Correct bite and dark pigment. Good bone for size; feet ok. Nice layback of shoulder with strong, well arched neck. Tail carried a tad tightly but he has a super outline and moved soundly. Carrying a correct coat – very well presented and handled. Really loved him.
2. Brandenburg & Smith’s Chayo Its Kurt For Taronakits – Good sized dog with large feet and correct bone. Handsome head, of good proportions, with dark pigment. Presenting a good body shape. Moved out well with a balanced side gait.

YD (3,1)
1. Lunn’s Nordicwinds Jazz Singer – 16 mths. Excellent coat on this handsome youngster. Plenty of substance, with balanced bone and good feet, and presenting a lovely profile. Good shoulder placement and depth to chest, with a good spring of rib. Strong, balanced head with thick ear leather and broad back skull developing. Correct tail, well set. Well muscled throughout with strong hocks. Sl overreaching at times on the move and moving a little close in front at the moment.

PGD (4, 1)
1. Horsman & Horsman-Phoenix Nordicwinds Grtest Showman. Good sized 16mth old. adequate bone for size. Good shoulder placement and layback of upper arm. Would prefer slighlty smaller ears. Broad thighs and excellent coat. Moved soundly all ways. Carrying a little too much weight.
2. Bowden, Hughes & Hughes’ Makalu Mountain Legacy At Staggan. Well muscled youngster with a beautiful side gait. Slightly light eye. Balanced head proportions with good back skull & bulky muzzle; correct bite. Chest is deep but just needs to broaden and develop as slightly loose in front movement at this moment in time. Strong rear.

LD (7,0)
1. Darlow’s Iceclimb Ascent. Super dog, who won this class with his excellent movement and structure. Strong, handsome head, of good proportion with strong back skull and dark pigment. I loved his balance and topline on the move. Well laid shoulders and good forechest with a strong powerful rear. Good feet with heavy bone. Out of coat today but correct texture. Moved out with powerful drive, looking like he could carry on all day. RCC.
2. Cameron’s Sutarka’s Firestorm. Excellent head, broad back skull and balanced proportions. Strong, well arched neck and good lay of shoulder with deep chest and strong thighs. Correct feet. Well presented. Preferred the forechest of 1. 

OD (7, 4)
1. Lovegrove’s Weyekin’s Light My Fire Within Arctictribe. Absolutely loved this (almost 10 yr old) male; I thought he was outstanding. Shown in superb body condition, he looked half his age. Moderate throughout, he presented a balanced profile with good angles front and rear with broad, well muscled, thighs. Handsome head of good proportions. Correct bite. Slightly light in eye. Excellent forechest with strong neck. Correct topline and firm loin. Good tail set and carriage. He excelled on the move and did not put a foot wrong today. A well deserved CC.
2. Page’s Ch Snow Legend Believe In You Cedarcreek (Imp Rus). Another beautiful example of our breed. The best of heads with a beautiful, soft expression, neat ears and strong muzzle/back skull. Correct bite. Good front assembly with deep chest and strong neck. Good bone. Broad thighs. Moved out very well all ways but just a tendency to roll slightly over his topline today. Super dog, really like him a lot.

Good forechest, strong neck of good length and well laid shoulder. Correct leg length for chest depth and a strong, well conditioned body. Correct tail set and carriage. Out of coat today but good texture. Moved out very soundly all ways with a lovely profile action. Loved her. BP.

1. Aitchison & Hurst’s Kaskae Fire Opal (A.I.) Lovely youngster – attractive head with striking markings and presents a lovely picture in profile. Dark pigment. Ears sl low set. Nicely balanced with good chest depth and arch to neck. Needs to develop in front, as one would expect at this age and just a slight roll today. Balanced side gait and clean action coming and going.

JB (6,2)
1. Lovegrove’s Snow Place Like Nome From Dreamwolves. Super youngster of great balance and good substance. Beautiful head – I just loved the proportions; good stop and eye shape, broad back skull and bulky muzzle. Correct bite. Strong neck and balanced front assembly with good shoulder lay back. Strong rear with broad thigh and correct croup. Good body length with firm loin. Moved extremely well on the up and back and an easy, sound, profile action. Loved her! BJ.
2. Perfitt’s Samjoe From Russia with Love. Pretty, well balanced, youngster. Good head developing with dark eye, thick ear leather and dark pigment. Good front assembly – chest depth good – with balanced rear and broad thighs. Proportionate bone and correct feet. Well presented and handled but just a little more unsettled on the move than 1. 

YB (3,0)
1. Bogle & Horsfield’s Cahppes Tailwind Takala At Valknut (Imp Swe). Really liked the shape and size of this smart looking female. Good head with broad back skull. Dark pigment, sl light eye. Would prefer a little more bone for size. Good depth to chest; sl forward in upper arm and good lay back of shoulder. Balanced proportions with broad thighs. Moved ok – side gait was balanced.

2. Perfitt’s Samjoe From Russia with Love. 

PGB (6,2)
1. Whyman’s Tailfly Bloodline. Another one that I really like the shape and substance of. Lovely balance to head with dark eyes and pigment. Ears well set with thick ear leather. Good body proportions with broad thighs and well let down hocks. Moved out extremely well – clean on the up and back. Shown in excellent coat and condition.
2. Wilson’s Arctictundra Taiya. A female of good balance with strong neck and good lay back of shoulder. Good spring of rib and chest depth. Balanced head with broad back skull. Well off for bone. Moved soundly just a slight roll over shoulders and would prefer a little less weight. 

LB
1. Aitchison & Hurst’s Kaskae Oasis. What a beautiful example of our breed this girl is. I loved her outline and angles. Excellent front assembly and balanced rear. Well developed head with good pigment and correct bite. Sl light in eye. Super substance and bone with good depth to chest and balanced leg length. Moved out extremely well – sound on the up and back and a powerful, very well balanced side gait. RCC.
2. Brown’s Cupun’s Masterpiece. Smaller framed, but standard sized. Striking female with a lovely profile and shape. I loved her head – broad back skull, neat ears, bulky muzzle with correct stop. Dark pigment. Good feet and bone for size. Good chest depth, strong neck and good shoulder lay back with correct topline. Tail a little tight. Moved a little close, at times, behind today but has the most beautiful side gait and holds her lovely topline well on the move. Presented in excellent coat and condition.

OB (4,1)
1. Pullin & Mountstephens Whitewalker Winterfell. Strong, athletic, frame to this young lady. Pretty head with good pigment and back skull/muzzle proportions. Sl light in eye. Correct bite. Would prefer smaller ears. Very balanced in proportions with a strong loin and well muscled, broad, thighs. Correct feet. Won this class with her excellent movement – rock solid topline on her side gait; clean and sound on the up and back. Moved with plenty of drive. I still think she has a couple of years to reach her full potential with maturity.
2. Copley-Holland’s Am Ch Katabatic’s Hollaback Girl. Close decision between 1 & 2 and she almost won this class. Heavier in build than 1. I loved her head. Full of substance, but feminine, and excellent balance to her angles front and rear. Good forechest, with good shoulder and upper arm placement. Correct feet and well off for bone. Strong loin. Carries her tail well and presents lovely shape standing and moving. Moved out really well but just a slight roll over her shoulders today. 

VB (5,2)
1. Wadrup’s Just Got To Love Me Polar Usvit. Exceptional quality 9 year old, absolutely in her prime and pulling all the stops out today. The best of heads with super substance and proportions, neat ears, thick leather, and beautiful expression. Good fore chest and shoulders with excellent bone and correct feet. She has a lovely balance to her. Strong thighs and well muscled throughout. Correct tail set. Beautiful coat. Well presented and handled, she moved around the ring with effortless, balanced, side gait and a solid topline all the way. Sound on the up and back too and I could not deny her the CC, BOB & BV. Thoroughly deserving of her title.
2. Jarvis & Troisi Nordicwinds All Attitude. Lovely 8 year old. Slightly narrower through head than 1. would prefer sl smaller ears. Dark eye and good pigment with an oblique eye. Good shoulder lay back and arch to strong neck. Strong broad thighs and deep chest. Good tail set and carriage. Moved out very well all ways. Carrying a beautiful coat and well presented.
