First Place in Open - Dog, Judge: Mrs Jill Stevens (Cobstoneway)
Thank you to the show committee for the warm welcome and hospitality. Also to the exhibitors , all entries being nicely turned out.
Strong class with 3 lovely exhibits.
1½ year old grizzle and tan dog of lovely size and type, presented in hard, fit condition. Muscle tone and correct construction really showed through in his movement which was accurate from every angle. Lovely masculine ottery head with strong jaw and big teeth, correct scissor bite and keen expression. Lovely neck flowing into excellent shoulders. Narrow straight front, and easily spannable with flat ribs carried well back. Good topline held well on move, and carrotty tail well set on. Good for bone, and excellent coat and pelt. Good angulation front and rear, hence an easy stride â?? very workmanlike dog who looks able to go all day. Looked good in group. BOB & TG2.
