I was delighted with this my first Championship judging appointment and would like to thank the committee for the appointment their wonderful hospitality and to the exhibitors who gave me their entries. I cannot leave out my very able bodied Ring Steward Ian Deans who did a wonderful job in assisting me and keeping me on the right track. My entry was mixed in type and I was looking for exhibits that moved out freely and of course meeting the breed standard requirements. VD or B ( 2 ) Two lovely senior ladies entered 1st Blacks CH Bassodon Ditta Von Tess I have had the pleasure of assessing this lady previously and I am pleased to see that t she still loves to show and enjoyed her time in the ring. She is very typy to the breed with a lovely reach of neck, well laid shoulders, enough ribbing and nice topline, moved with drive round the ring. 2nd Hill &Niall Drakesleat Material Girl at Kanstul a lady more senior in age but still hadn’t forgotten what was required of her. Correct head eye and reach of neck, she kept her topline when moving and stacked but didn’t quite have the drive of first. MPD 3 (1) 1 Jones Bimini Starstruck Nice headed puppy with good reach of neck enough forechest and ribbing. On the move he was a little straight behind but he did keep his topline moving and stacked . 2 Grants Granhoward Geoffrey.

Pleased to award him CC & BOB 2 Barneys Verrami En Trac Pleasing head dark oval eye good reach of neck. Good angulation front and back. Such a shame he didn’t move today but I understand he had cut his paw earlier in the week. 3 Smiths Alpheratz Ulises PGD2 1 Marston Teals Lordscairnie Moment of Love Good head mouth and eye reachy neck and level topline well muscled rear moved out well. He didn’t put in the extra effort to cover the ground in the challenge and this cost him in the awards 2 Livingstons Portalutra the Glory 4 year old who is slightly overweight displayed an excellent forechest but flying a flag tail on the move which spoiled his topline nice coat.
