First Place in Yearling - Dog, Judge: Miss Jean Singh (Vandamere)
It was a pleasure to judge at this show. The sun was shining on this first outdoor show of the year. Many thanks to my stewards Rob and Julie.
I found two youngsters with just level mouths, one exhibit had a misaligned lower tooth and two exhibits with light eyes. Front movement is still a problem, what I did find alarming were a number of exhibits with large, thick set heavy ears. Some exhibits were lacking in body condition and muscle tone.
such a masculine head without being coarse. Nice V shaped ears, dark eyes, good stop with a strong muzzle. Lovely length of neck, straight front. He has good bone and neat feet. Ribs were a good shape and was easily spanned . He has correct angulation and was well muscled with his second thigh evident. He has a pleasing outline and on the move he held his top line, finished off with a carrot shaped tail. Presented in a good double coat. Moved soundly in the class, however was a little unsettled in the challenge. RDCC
