Was pleased to award the Dog CC  2nd:   Golden Spurs. Dr. J. Alstead. I have always liked this young man but today his movement let him down plus he looked very young for this class…which is good for his owner, a slow maturing glen is the best to have.  3rd:  Romainville Freddies Choice. Mr & Mrs. A. Dunning

OD (2 Entries) Abs: 0 1st:  Amard High Flyer. Mr & Mrs M. Hardy. A young lad who is a good mover, got a nice head, eye colour good and a correct mouth, liked his front and feet, today for me he needed a little more weight on. 2nd:  Pajantick Star Trooper. Miss. L. Hogburn. This young lad looks lovely in stance and moving around the ring he proves to be sound, he has a stunning head a great body, his coat looked lovely but just preferred the bite  on 1st.

Tail set correct angulations not over done. 2nd:  Pajantick Rockahula. Mrs J. Whithers. A baby that had the sweetest expression  of the day, loved her head and eye colour, good bone, correct front. sturdy  body for a baby, she didn’t feel like running round the ring today so movement could not be assessed.

 

PGB (3 Entries) Abs: 0 1st Ellerton Dusky Beauty. Mrs B. J.Baldock. A young lady who is very talkative while she is being gone over by a judge, a lovely head, correct mouth nice eye colour and shape. lovely front, ample bone, deep chest not over done in stifle, moved sound, really like this young lady and will watch her future with interest. Pleased to award her the Reserve BCC, well done. 2nd:   Amhard Jessie Jay, A. & J. O’Brien & P & D. James.  This young lady is coming on in leaps and bounds, a great head and expression correct bite, sturdy body nice front, great angulations front and rear, was stacked and looked beautiful but movement a little erratic today,  her day will come I am sure.

LB (3 Entries) Abs: 0 1st: Romainville Rock On Ruby. K. George. I have judged this young lady before when she was lacking coat, but today she is in full coat, nice type, she  has a lovely head  strong but feminine, good foreface, correct bite, ears and eyes. her front is correct giving a good front movement, deep chest, well boned. A good  rear driving action.  Pleased to award her the BCC and BOB. well done. 2nd: Amhard Indy Kate . Mr. & Mrs. Hardy. A lovely little lady so sweet, adorable expression  head not to ignore nice amount of width across the skull correct bite, ear placement and front. She can show the rest how to move but today a little to much tuck up for me. 3rd:  Romainville Uptown Girl . Miss. A. Hannington.
