Puppy Dog
Absent: #1 (Sales's - Inanda Mellberg Arnd JV of Ersted Lionpride)
Intermediate Dog
1st. #2 (Liversedge & Donoghue's - Sajumika Zin Zan) Graded Excellent
This is a handsome young dog with a very nice head-piece, good substance, and nice level topline when on the move.
He is a little straight both front and rear but well balanced and moves well.
Open Dog1st. #5 (Patterson's - Rocksham Kimmeri) Graded Excellent
Nice balanced dog, a little on the small side compared to most of the other entries, but very correct in size.
Dark mahogany color, relatively short-coupled with nice straight legs and firm topline.
He uses himself very well moving, both on the side-go and down-and-back.
This was Green-Star Dog and Best in Show.
2nd. #3 (Anthony's - Rotzridge Cock O The Walk Jnr Ch) Graded Excellent
This dog is on the larger end of the spectrum and is a little high in the rear although he is sound moving.
3rd. #4 (Cooper's - Drummberg Playing With Fire) Graded Very Good
Champion Dog1st. #6 (Boyd's - Ch. & Intl. Ch. Sikulubani Tonka~Tau Jnr. Ch) Graded Excellent
Big boy, somewhat light in color, with good substance and a pleasing head-piece.
He moves well with good reach and drive.
This was Reserve Green-Star Dog.
2nd. #9 (Cunningham's - Ch. Walamadengie Monte-Carlo Jnr Ch. CW) Graded Excellent
Dark mahogany dog, solid with solid topline. Well-balanced with moderate angulation.
Eyes are somewhat almond-shaped, whereas our standard calls for a round eye.
3rd. #8 (Cooper's - Ch. GB Ch. Intl. Ch. Veldkammer Dew To More Duo Jnr. Ch. CW) Graded Excellent
Veteran Dog1st. #10 (Bojkovsky's – Sofala Sekuoba) Graded Excellent
This 10-year old was just a little gimpy, but did carry himself well for his age.
He makes a pleasing profile stacked and has a solid topline, good substance, and pleasing head-piece.
Puppy Bitch
1st. #12 (Hegarty's - Ballyriver Heather for Knockeen) Graded Very Promising
Very pretty puppy bitch, nice level topline, pretty head with good expression. Carries herself very well, sound coming and going.
Knuckled over a bit on both pasterns. This puppy is very promising, especially if the pasterns straighten out as she matures.
