An appointment I thoroughly enjoyed, thanks to the committee and exhibitors for a lovely day!

Minor Puppy Bitch (5)
1. Lamb Dalpetro Diva 7 month old feminine baby of pleasing type and quality. Attractive head for shape, pleasing expression, and well shaped eye but could be a little darker. Excellent reach of neck and front assembly, cat feet. Carrying plenty of body for her age, needs to settle in rear as yet. Loose in movement but shows good potential. BPB
2. Webster Tamilanda Pink Addition to Damarno 8 month old wild child who ran rings around her handler. Preferred her overall outline to 1, attractive head, a touch bold in eye but excellent pigment. Pleasing front assembly, liked her bone and well padded feet. Pleased on the move when she got it together. Liked her markings and zest for life, could loose a touch of weight to advantage. Should have a good future once she settles and puts her effort into showing.

Critiques as per MPB

Junior Bitch (8,1)
1. Alexander Offordale Catalina Almost 18 month old bitch I have admired before, so typical in head, flat skull, the darkest of pigment and eyes of pleasing shape. Strong well arched neck and excellent front assembly, pleasing bone and the best feet in this entry. Well ribbed back, strong loin if a touch long. Excellent well angulated quarters, short strong hocks she used to advantage on the move. Attractively marked, well conditioned and totally deserving of all her success. RBB & brother to the eventual BIS.
2. Saunders Dallydyl Lady of Shallot More heavily marked liver bitch but with a very similar outline to 1. Liked her head shape, face markings do detract a little but this cannot be helped, well set ears, eye colour ok. Well arched neck and pleased for front assembly, ribbed well back, excellent topline and tailset, pleasing well developed quarters. Shown in hard condition and moved with excellent reach and drive. Best Liver Bitch.
3. Adderley Buffrey Mayqueen at Leiahart

Yearling Bitch (11,2)
One withdrawn lame from this class.
1.McManus Boschendal Lady in Red Another well marked liver bitch I have not seen before. Top of the height range for me but so well balanced, feminine head and expression. Excellent pigment, eye colour and rims. Pleased in front construction, good feet, and well bodied, moderate tuck up. Strong through the loin, pleasing tailset and quarters. Moved on a long stride, attentive showgirl but handler could do more to enhance her virtues.
2. Ely Wintermine Flamenco Better sized bitch, heavily marked but not unappealing. Loved her head shape, pleasing in expression, oval eyes of good colour. Good neck, moderately angulated front and good feet. Good depth of chest, pleasing topline and tailset. Shown in good condition and moved out well.
3. Baker Klarkeson Royal Mint

Maiden Bitch (6,1)
1.Webster Tamilanda Pink Addition to Damarno 2nd in Minor Puppy, moving much better here and deserved her placing.

1. Saunders Dallydyl Lady of Shallot As per earlier class.
2.Webster Tamilanda Pink Addition to Damarno As per earlier class.
3. Davies & Cowton Phadante Sweet Painted Lady

Graduate Bitch (3,1)
1. Adderley Buffrey Mayqueen at Leiahart Adolescent bitch with much to admire, lovely for head shape and balance, dark expressive eyes, good pigment. Excelled in front assembly, excellent bone and feet. Body well developed, mid phantom at the moment so a touch loose in under carriage and between coats. Moderate rear angulation, showed a good length of stride.
2. Dalendale Dakota at Dalorno Moderate sized bitch ably handled by her young handler. Pleasing head and good eye for shape and colour, skull could be a touch flatter. Please for overall shape, good bone, legs and feet. Liked her markings, fairly true out and back but not putting much into it. In good condition.

Post Graduate Bitch (6)
1. Kembrey Dalmark the Sandwitch 3 year old bitch liver bitch of excellent colour, so typical of this kennel, moved out on a long stride and really covered the ground with ease. Attractive head and eye, well set ears, plenty of neck, pleased for front assembly. Well bodied and ribbed right back, strong through the loin. Excellent well developed quarters, a charismatic showgirl, just a touch loose in under carriage today. See I gave her BP last time I judged, pleased to see she still appealed.
2. Pearson & Dodds Kelevra Mercury Rising Black spotted bitch close up to 1, like her expression, could do with a little more muzzle to balance her head. Darkest of eyes of a good shape. Well angulated forequarters, very good feet, moderate tuck up, excellent topline, could be better let down in rear. Shown in hard condition.
3. McManus Boschendal Lady in Red

Limit Bitch (9,1)
1. Goff Leggett Mullabuoy Miss Chief of Washakie JW 2 year old bitch with a beautiful outline, ultra feminine head, dark oval eyes that sparkled, excellent pigment, well set ears. Well arched neck, shoulders laid well back, excellent bone and well padded cat feet. Ribbing well developed, strong loin and attractively marked. Excellent fully developed hindquarters which she used to advantage on the move, tail well set and carried. Moved on a long even stride in profile and true out and back. The consummate showgirl, presented in immaculate condition and handled to advantage, should make up with ease. BB & RBIS
2. Wright Boutonneux Artemis of Millbelle JW Attractively marked liver bitch, liked her head and eye. Well arched neck, pleasing bone and good feet. Deep body and well ribbed back, excellent topline, tail well set and carried. Not quite the quarters of one but she moved out with excellent reach and covered the ground with ease. In good muscletone, will always be in contention.
3. Thorner Tolutim Drambuie SH CM

Open Bitch (8,1)
1. Wright Angelic Aphrodite for Millbelle JW SH CM One I have judged and liked before, a lovely head undoubtedly feminine, dark oval shaped eyes. Lovely overall outline, well developed front, good bone and ok feet. Well ribbed back, good depth of chest and well ribbed back, a touch exaggerated in rear but the most fluid mover here. Presents a good picture standing and moving.
2. Whincup Tamilanda Hot Pink Liver bitch of good size and balance. Pleasing head shape and I liked her eye. Good reach of neck, moderate angulation fore and aft, excellent bone and feet. As all from this kennel presented in very good body and hard condition. Moved on an even stride but couldn't match the reach of 1.
3. Kembrey Dalmark the Super Sleuth

Special Junior Veteran Bitch (7,2)
1. Bolt Fakenham Desert Orchid Attractively marked liver spotted bitch who moved so soundly. Pleasing head, kind expression and dark oval shaped eyes, understandably a bit grey in muzzle. Strong neck, pleasing front angulation and excellent forechest, good bone and cat feet. Body well developed, strong topline and in the hardest of condition for 8 years of age. Moved true and show great reach and drive in profile. BVIS
2. Scott Allen & Davis Tolutim Chartreuse JW Another 8 year old who excelled in profile movement. Undoubtedly feminine, flat skull, well shaped eye and ears well set. Shown in very good body and stands on good legs and feet. Coat a little thin but deserved her placing here.
3. Williams Phadante Bossanova Baby

Special Senior Veteran Bitch (3)
1. Scott Allen & Davis Olbero Olympic Rose JW 11 year old bitch and mother of the second in the previous class from where she obviously inherited her excellent movement. Excellent angulation, bone and still the best of cat feet. Very well ribbed back, strong topline which did not faulter. A bit thin in coat now but one to be proud of.
2. Wallington Diamond Dally Another 11 year old bitch who seemed to thoroughly enjoy herself, not quite the angulation or femininity of one but still very positive moving and who presented a typical outline both standing and moving. Shown in lovely condition.
