Judge's Critiques
PD (3,1)
1st Ellis-Payne’s Sno Quest’s Gonna Fly Now to Chayo (imp USA). Lovely puppy showing a good overall shape and a nice, harsh coat. He has a wonderful shape of head with dark eye and gave a balanced view. He moved around the ring with a lovely gait and waving plume, I was pleased to award him BPIB
2nd: Perfitt’s Samjoe Shadowhunter. Another lovely puppy who had many good points but appeared to be in a growth spurt which threw his overall shape on the day. Despite this, he no doubt has a bright future.
JD (1,0)
1st: Perfitt’s Samjoe Shadowhunter. As above.
PGD (1,0)
1st: Horsman-Phoenix’s Snow Legend Zenith Of Fame Nordicwinds JW (Imp RUS). Lovely dog with a plush coat. He has a good head shape, good breadth of muzzle, ears small, or good shape and placement. Good angulation front and rear with ample bone and a nice length to height ratio. Moved around the ring with drive and handled to advantage.
LD (3,1)
1st: Horsman-Phoenix’s Nordicwinds Grtest Showman JW. A boy who is starting to show his maturity. He has a good shape to his head with a bark, oblique eye. Good arch of neck, width of chest, layback of shoulder, slightly sloping topline and length of loin. He has a good length of leg and ample bone for his size. He moved out well and managed to win the class but let himself down in the challenge which was a shame.
2nd: Brandenberg& Smith’s Chayo It’s Kurt for Taronakits JW. Another lovely male with many of the same attributes of 1. I ignored the lack of coat – it’s summer! but when considering the two boys in the class, I preferred the angulation of 1. Again, moved out well with balance and drive.
OD (3,0)
1st: Lunn’s Nordicwinds Jazz Singer. Looking his best on the day, this boy was worthy of his award of BOB. He has a lovely shape of head, dark oblique eyes, broad muzzle, dark pigment, lovely ear shape and placement. His arch of neck leads to a well defined shoulder placement and width of chest stood over well boned legs of good length and on large feet. Lovely topline, curve of rib and depth of chest. Moderate rear angles and good tail carriage. He brought his A game and moved around the ring with ease, showing both drive and balance, coming, going and from the side. Presented beautifully.
2nd: Keeling’s Ir CH Kishdigra Smooth Operator. A mature male who showed really well on the day. I liked his head, the shape was broad without being overdone and he had a good eye. Well furred ears of the correct size. He had a good shape of body, deep and broad chest, held a good topline. Carried a good harsh coat. He moved out well and his handler got the best of him. Awarded RCC
VD (2,0)
1st: Nevinson’s CH Chayo Golden Touch ShCM. A male who gives a pleasing outline, beautiful head, carries a good topline, good bone, length of leg and large feet. Wearing a nice summer coat of harsh texture and moving well around the ring.
2nd: Butler’s Kaytoo Antarctic Kuma. A dog I have long admired, pleasing expression, enough breadth to head, straight in front, good length of leg, moderate rear angulation carries his tail well. Was beaten by movement on the day with a lack of drive, possibly down to the heat.
Puppy Bitch (1,0)
1st: Perfitt’s Samjoe Seelie Queen. A very feminine girl, showing real promise.
