LOTHIAN CANINE CLUB OPEN SHOW

SATURDAY 11 SEPTEMBER 2010

GOLDEN RETRIEVER JUDGE: PAULA HILL – SANDAULA

Thank you all for a very enjoyable day. All exhibitors must be congratulated for their dogs that were shown in hard muscular condition and beautifully presented.

Puppy 5 – 2 abs

1st Boyle’s FORTHVALLEY SNOW PATROL

8mth dog, masculine head with a melting expression, with good pigment, corrects length of neck flowing into correct shoulder placement, straight front with tight feet. Slightly longer in back than 2, level topline with tail set of back, good bend of stifle, strong hocks used to cover ground well. Coat just on the change. Would prefer more body but sure this will come with age.

2nd McGuffin’s COLBAR CHANTILLY LACE OF MILLTIMBER

3rd King’s CLEDDANS INDIANNA SPIRT

Junior 6 – 2 abs

1st Walker’s KANTEAL CAMOMILE LAWN OF CARDRONA

See I done her mother well as a puppy. 18month bitch, with a very balanced and square outline. Strong feminine head with good pigment. Nicely placed shoulders with straight front, good tight feet, and level topline which she held better on the move than 2. Tail set slightly low but carried well. Good bend of stifle and moved effortlessly round the ring. Beautiful mid gold coat presented to perfection.

2nd Ogilvie’s TULLIALLAN GALLILEO AT GLENBUIE

3rd King’s CLEDDANS INDIANNA SPIRIT

Graduate 12 – 7 abs

1st Monie’s EARNGROVE HEARTBREAKER

All male dog that was really enjoying himself, standing four square with an ever-wagging tail. A balanced chiselled head, with a kind expression, good reach of neck flowing into correct shoulders, straight front, stands on cat like feet, deep chest with close fitting elbows, level topline which he held on the move, shown in hard condition which showed when he drove effortlessly around ring. I would not want as much trimming on his neck or down front.

2nd Barron & Jenkin’s RANNALEROCH BEINN BHREAC JW

3rd Walker’s KANTEAL CAMOMILE LAWN OF CARDRONA

Post Graduate 7 – 2 abs

1st McDonald’s LAMANCHA FLAME OF HOPE

Blonde girl who caught my eye as soon as she came in the ring I was not disappointed when going over her. Beautiful feminie head with a soft kind expression, enhanced with good pigment. Strong muscular neck, into good shoulder placement, close fitting elbows, straight front, stands square on cat like feet. Not as mature in body as 2 but will come with age, short coupled with nice spring of ribs, level topline which she held on the move. Strong straight hocks with tail of correct length. Shown in a profuse blonde coat of correct texture. When she moved, she was a joy to watch, moved with accrucency and purpose. Please to award her BOB and go G2 under the Group Judge.

2nd Welsh’s LINIGOR LUV EM AND LEAVE EM

3rd Walker’s KANTEAL CAMOMILE LAWN OF CARDRONA

Open 10 – 3 abs

1st Monie’s EARNGROVE RECOIL JW

See his younger litter brother won Grad, similar remarks apply, shown in a mid gold coat, beautifully presented, stands four square. Balanced masculine head with kind eye enhanced with good pigment. Strong muscular neck, straight front with good feet, close fitting elbows, with spring of rib, deep chest. Level top line with tail straight of back, good bend of stifle, neat hocks, just preferred his overall balance to a very nice mature bitch, who both moved with drive and purpose around the ring.

2nd McDonald’s FLYNGALEE WHISPERING JW

3rd Welsh’s LINIGOR LOVE EM AND LEAVE EM
