Windsor Championship Dog Show (01-07-2022)

First Place in Junior - Dog, Judge: Mr David G Winsley (Davmar)

Show Critique:

I last judged the breed in 2017 so most of the dogs were new to me. I felt that the breed is losing that ‘ otter head’ appearance, fore-faces appearing to be too long. Poor front construction in many was a deciding factor in my placing, our ring didn’t help, but the conditions were the same for everyone.

Placing Critique:

Lovely clean & balanced outline. Nice for size with a lovely head, dark eye with well placed ears & alert expression. Good reach of neck, well made shoulders & front. Good depth of body with correct ribbing. Well made muscular hindquarters & nice turn of stifle. Correct tailset & carriage. Spans easily, in good coat with a good pelt. Moves with a fluent driving action, shows all the time. Well deserved the CC & BOB.
