SMOOTH COLLIE A disappointing entry for Roughs and Smooths, a mix up with schedules I was told. Vet 1 Merland Mystery Man of Sarlana. 9 year tri dog. Good length of head, nice eye. Fair length of neck and shoulder. Straight front, good depth and width of chest. Nice length to height ratio. Slightly dipping in topline now but moved well. 2 No name given. Tri bitch of 7 years. Good head pattern, pleasing eye and expression. Good shoulder and upperarm, firm topline, moved well. Young handler needs more practice. Liked her overall balance, but was let down with her wayward ears. P 1 Dawcher Dream Searcher. Just 6 months old tri bitch with a lovely eye and expression. Good neck and shoulder, well angulated front and depth of chest. Correct topline, good bend of stifle. Upright hocks and neat feet. Moved well for a puppy of this age, will watch her future with interest. Best Puppy. J 1 Pelchart Pied Piper. Pleaisng head pattern to another tri. Dog of nice size, fair eye. Good neck and shoulder, straight front and a good topline and rear angles. Moved well, although spread his toes and not in the best of coats, and flew the flag. But preferred his head and eye. BOS. PGD 1 Pelchart Pied Piper. LD 1 Alopex Highland Fling. Upstanding 2 year old tri, strength of head, good ears and set. Good conformation front and rear. Firm topline, moved well in front but sometimes moved wide at the rear. Close call for Best Dog. PGB 1 Alopex Plum Lush. Tri bitch of 3 and a half years. Refined head, good stop and eye, correct earset. Good front and rear angles. Nice depth of chest, move and showed well. LB 1 Hilltarn Velentine JW. 3 year tri presenting a lovely outline. Very sound in movement front and rear. Good reach of neck and good front. Good length of upperarm, width, depth of chest and a firm topline. Nice bend of stifle, short upright hocks and neat feet. She has a refined head with correct wedge viewed from front and side. Dark almond eye, good ears and correctly placed stop. Showed and presented well and in good jacket. BOB. OB 1 Ch Foxearth Phoebe. 6 years feminine bitch b/m. Pleasing outline, good eye and ears, nice front. Moved well in front - a little wide behind.
