Thank you for the entry of 11 exhibits in this non-CC classification. I had looked forward to the entry as I do enjoy the breed, but I was taken aback by some exhibits which, in my opinion, carried too much white on their bodies which I think is an undesirable trait and detracts from their quality, and for this reason I withheld first prize in two classes. I felt sorry to do this but explained my reasoning to the exhibitors and I appreciated their sporting acceptance. The three exhibits appeared in successive classes and i feared the trait was becoming widespread in the breed and that thought motivated my decision to withhold first prizes from them. 
V 1 Alopex Marionette Of Oakstelle, 9 year old blue merle of good proportions and topline and moves with a long clean stride.Good ribcage.Feminine head with good planes but could have a little more strength in the muzzle.Sweet expression.Pleased me a lot and was my choice for BOB. 
PD 1 Tersurani Golden Dream, 7months sable/white with fine head, which needs to develop a little more underjaw, good eyes and ears and a sweet expression.I would prefer mor angulation in the shoulder.At the moment a baby in the body and needs to fill out generally. 
PGD 1 Coneypark Countdown Of Allangill 22 months sable of good size and proportions and sound on the move witn a good stride.A touch broad in backskull.Carries himself well on the move.Could be a little cleaner through the neckline. Best Dog. 
PB 1 Foxearth Fashion For Jagentraum tricolour of good size and a quality head and dark eye.I liked her bone and feet and her coat quality. She is sound on the mover but could have a little more drive and her handler could make a little more of her to show off her qualities. Has promise.Best Puppy. 2 Shulune Imperial Design, sable/white out of smaller mould.Very pretty head and expression and an excellent ribcage. I would prefer stronger bone and feet. A very good stride on the move. In my opinion her white markings are excessive. 
JB 1 S.Imperial Design. 2 Oakstelle Artemis. 
PGB 1 Brackamore Butterfingers, a quality tricolour with a lot to like in her type, construction and movement.She has a good head but I woud prefer a softer expression. Sadly, she has a white patch over her ribcage which detracts from her quality, but I think I may have been too hard on this on the grounds of being consistent.  
OB 1 Oakstelle Venus De Milo feminine blue merle, clean, feminine head. Has a degree of elegance in her outline and movement but I would like a little more substance for her age. Won her place on topline and tail carriage and was Reserve BOS. 2 Foxearth Fandella, tricolour witn lovely head and expression, good ribcage and bone and a very good coat in lovely condition. Soft in topline on the day and a little proud of her tail. 3 Int Ch Shulune Imperial Legend.
