Best Bitch, Best Of Breed and later Best In Show. 2 Hartley's Foxearth Finnish Spirit At Jimjack Sh CM. This 2 year old tri is just my cup of tea, feminine of ideal size and so well balanced. Very good head, flat skull and perfectly placed ears. she moves soundly and is so well put together. Her owner must concentrate more to get the best out of this high quality bitch. One I? have judged before and placed. Saw enough to award Reserve Best Sitch and reserVe best of breed. She was called for the challenge for reserve best in show but her owner had gone home. 3 Moores' Tomalca Buttons N Bows At Manordeifi
