First Place in Puppy, Judge: Mrs Elizabeth Barrett (Howthwaite)
Blue and tan, 11 months old puppy dog. Good bite with big teeth, dark eye and little stop. Lack of furnishings at the moment made him look immature but he has enough strength of jaw. Good neck into well laid shoulders. Lovely angulations front and rear without being overdone. Narrow throughout and well ribbed back. Easily spanned with a good rib shape, correct topline and well set tail. Free and true on the move. I liked him very much, just pipped at the post for BOB by the open winner who had more maturity of finish. RBOB & BPIB
