South Wales KA 2013

Thank you to both the Smooth and Rough exhibitors for giving me the opportunity of going over their dogs. I was very pleased with the quality and cleanliness of all exhibits and the sporting manor of accepting my placings.

J 1 Sweeney's Foxearth Fine Beauty. 10 months b, heavier marked than I would have liked, but lovely head properties. Well placed dark eye, flat skull, used ears well, giving a alert sweet expression, good length of neck leading to good shoulder placement, level topline held on the move, moved very well. Pleased to award her BPIB. 2 Moores' Tomalca Buttons N Bows At Manordeifi. 17 months s/w. Good head properties, dark well placed eye, used ears well. Good shoulder placement, level topline which she held on the move, tail carriage wasn't as good as first on the move. 3 Coates' Seanua Scotch Mist.

OB 1 Lusty's Juniperwood Just A Dream. Lovely head, dark well placed and shaped eye, used ears well to give alert expression, good shoulder placement, straight front, good body shape, level topline which was held on the move. Moved out with purpose and drive. Pleased to award her BB & BOB. 2 Coates' Alopex Blue Moon. Good head properties, well placed dark eye. Used ears well, good front, good shoulder placement, good level topline with required rise over loin. Loved her colour, really tough decision between 1 and 2 but first moved with a bit more drive and purpose. A worthy RBB & RBOB. 3 Moores' Manordeifi Silver Dazzle.
