Critiques

Yearling Dog
1st. Icycool Hudson Bay (ai) (Mr B & Mrs S Innes). Powerfully made, upstanding 19 m o lad with clean lines. I liked his head with strength to muzzle, slight stop and broad skull. Moderately defined shoulders supported by strong straight bone into large compact feet. Depth to chest with gentle slope to level topline and correct tail set. Moved soundly with strong drive. Coarse, stand of coat in good condition.
2nd. Nordicwinds Grtest Showman JW (Mr J & Mrs J Horsman & Horsman-Phoenix). Balanced lad of 22 m. Pleased in outline and masculinity conveying strength without coarseness. Just preferred stronger head of winner. Lovely well placed almond eye. Strength to neck into moderately defined shoulders. Well developed loin, moderately defined hindquarters. Moved steady.

Post Graduate Dog
1st. Red Flower Junior del Biagio for Tatkresiwok (Imp Ita) (Mrs J Pitcher). 3 y o upstanding r. He is well built and has great bone and tidy feet but is just a tad cloddy. Strength to head but ears could be carried higher. Muscular neck, firm level back with gentle slope. Moderately defined hindquarters.
2nd. Snow Legend Zenith of Fame Nordicwinds (Imp Rus) JW (Mr J & Mrs J Horsman & Horsman-Phoenix). 17 m and maturing well. Preferred stronger head of the winner but the outline of this chap. Just enough substance but has time on his side. Moved soundly with scope. Well presented coarse coat.

Limit Dog
1st. Nordicwinds Jazz Singer (Mr A & Mrs D Lunn). Quality lad and a convincing winner. 22 m so not yet at his peak. Clean head with strong muzzle, some stop, width between well appointed small ears. Muscular neck, clean front assembly supported by strong straight bone. Deep brisket with topline and tail set to suit. Moderately defined hindquarters produced purposeful driving action. RDCC.
2nd. Icycool Atomic (ai) (Mr B & Mrs S Innes). 

Open Dog
1st Ch Chayo Cause Celebre (Mrs S Ellis-Payne). Mature 5 y o all male without a hint of coarseness and presenting a classic outline. Strength to head with attributes to enhance. Very well constructed and balanced with clean neck strong bone and body of substance. Lovely topline, tailset and carriage. Moderately defined muscular hindquarters, he is a super sound mover with great reach, drive and deportment to set him apart. Coarse stand away coat was superbly presented. DCC BOB group
2. Well done. 2nd. Snowshoes Ring Presence (Mr M Woodgate). Upstanding 4 y o with a balanced head, slight stop and small well placed ears. Moderately defined forehand with strong boned parallel limbs. Well developed body pleasing topline and muscular loin. Moved soundly and was well presented. 

Veteran Dog Both 7 y o
1st. Ch Snowshoes King’s Legacy ShCM ShCEx (Mrs J E & Miss J Smith). This lad carries a quality headpiece with attributes to enhance. Very honestly constructed frame, strong bone and large compact feet. Body of substance with topline and tail set to suit. Free easy action. BV.
2nd. Cristakell April Moon over Muzoku (Ms T & Mr E Forsey.). Very balanced profile, decent head although I just preferred that of the winner. Moderately defined shoulders, deep chest and well ribbed with suitable topline and tail. Hindquarters to compliment forehand. Moved soundly with drive and purpose.

Special Beginners Dog
1st. Red Flower Junior del Biagio for Tatkresiwok (Imp Ita) (Mrs J Pitcher).

Minor Puppy Bitch
1st. Pameiyut J’aime La Vie (Imp Nld) NAF (Miss J Marshall). 7 m developing well with fairly balanced outline. Head coming, needs to grow into ears. Appropriate bone. Moved reasonably, just needs to tighten up and has time on her side. BP.

Junior Bitch
1st. Snow Legend Zest for Life Cedarcreek (Imp Rus) (Mr P & Mrs M Page). Developing well she carries a typical well balanced head with decent attributes. Strong bone and good feet. Depth to brisket, gently sloping level back with tail set just right. Moved steady, reasonable hocks.
2nd. Samjoe from Russia with Love JW (Mrs S & Miss L Perfitt). Very feminine 17 m, pushed hard but not quite the maturity of the winner. Conveyed a balanced outline and is very promising. Needs to settle on the move. 

Yearling Bitch
1st. Lapema Bella Dannata (Mrs K L Jelfs). Feminine without weakness she portrays a typical outline and decent head, I would prefer a darker eye. Clean front assembly, well shaped rib cage, firm back to reasonably high set tail. Moved soundly with ease.
2nd. Icycool Ottawa (ai) (Mr B & Mrs S Innes). Well made and looks the part. Clean neck and forehand, strong bone into tidy feet. Moderately defined hindquarters. Moved steady. Not quite in full bloom. 

Post Graduate Bitch
1st. Chayo Helping Hands for Daranash (Mrs S Parker). Balanced lady with a clean well developed head, dark well pigmented almond eye. Clean front, enough bone and depth of chest. Desired topline, strong loin, high set tail and moderately angled hindquarters. Moved steady. Decent coat well presented.
2nd. Samjoe’s The One and Only (Mrs S & Miss L Perfitt). Very close up. Pleases for breed type but not quite the head of the winner at present. Projects a lovely balanced outline and is sound in all departments. 

Limit Bitch
1st. Kaskae My Wonderwall (Miss L & Mr S Aitchison & Hurst). 3 y o feminine lady very together and in correct muscular condition. I liked her head and properties, clean neck and strong straight bone. Level back with gentle slope and moderately defined muscular hindquarters. Moved soundly with scope.
2nd. Chayo Brightest Star at Daranash (Mrs S Parker). Well grown 21/2 y o. Head could be stronger. She presented a balanced outline and was well put down but I would have preferred a coarser coat.

Open Bitch
1st. Kaskae Oasis (Miss L & Mr S Aitchison & Hurst). Strongly developed lady but not coarse and retaining gender. She carries a well developed and proportioned head with eye just dark enough. Loved her outline and she was so sound to go over. She moved with great scope and was totally functional. Well presented coat. BCC.
2nd. Muzoku You’re My Obsession (Ms T & Mr E Forsey). 2 y o maturing well, she is balanced with a well developed and proportioned head. Depth to chest and sound limbs. Topline and tail set to suit. Moved soundly. Quality coarse coat well presented, RBCC. 

Veteran Bitch
1st. Tailfly Rainbow Ribbons (Mrs J & Mr J Whyman & Murray). Very impressive 131/2 y o she carries her age well, presents the desired profile and carries a respectable head. Moved soundly and a real credit to her owner.
2nd. Nordicwinds All Attitude (Mrs D & Mrs S Jarvis & Troisi). 9 y o, very balanced and looked the winner but I just favoured the head of the winner. Well constructed, very sound and also a credit to her owner.
