Second Place in Open, Judge: Mr Darren J Lockley (Chatmoss)
My thanks to all involved especially the exhibitors for bringing their dogs for me to go over and give my opinion.
All dogs were easily spannable which was a pleasure to see and most felt super fit with great jackets.
3 year old grizzle & tan dog. Lovely type who looked very nice when standing in profile. Good head of not too much width with little stop, great expression, strong muzzle with a correct bite. Narrow right through with a harsh outer and soft underlay of coat covering a good rib and loin. Tail well set on and of correct shape, quite well muscled hind quarters, taken all together he looked a good specimen however did not have the movement of 1 especially going away from me.
