Class 377 LD (2 Entries) Abs: 1

1st: 606 SHORT, Mrs Elaine R & SHORT, Mr S W G Arianrhod Aavevalo To Glenchess (ai) 18 month old male. Well grown and masculine in outlook. I could really envisage him doing a days’ herding. Has some length of leg, well proportioned with his overall length. Good head with well defined stop and strength to shapely skull. Dark, oval eye. Medium neck. Good depth of chest. Quality bone. Firm backline. Muscular loins. Well set-on tail. Thick, double coat. Moved with a brisk, efficient gait. Pleased to award him Res CC in good company. Should easily be another Ch. for these well-known affixes.

Class 378 OD (5 Entries) Abs: 0 A good, but challenging class to judge. Each slightly different.

1st: 587 BRACHE, Mrs J Jsy Ch Elbereth Oreokeksi At Lappiness. A very appealing male just approaching full maturity and giving a well-balanced outline on the stack. Super head piece, showing a strong blunt wedge shape. Excellent eye for shape and set giving the desired expression. Attentive to handler using his ears well. Moderate angulation front and rear. Excellent tail set and carriage on the move. Beautiful, thick coat. Excellent from profile on the move displaying a moderate stride and fully deserving his place here. CC his first, good luck with his UK title.

2nd: 585 ANDERSON, Miss K L Limishka Vainamoinen. Liked this mature male previously and looked very good again here. Slightly different in head type to 1st, strong and masculine all through. Good length and lay of shoulder. Functional chest. Strong bone. Moderate rear. Handler did a great job with him and moved at just the right pace allowing him to show breed typical movement.

1st: 592 CRITCHLOW, Mrs Sammy & CRITCHLOW, Mr Piers Pavoskas Iloilme. Really liked this 2 year old female who I feel the best is still to come. Very appealing and I liked her attractive colouring. Lovely for size and femininity but has strength to both her frame and bone. Excellent head piece with correct eye shape and keen expression. Excellent shoulder and return of upperarm. Moderate rear. Excellent mover and in good double coat.

2nd: 598 LOCK, Mrs S H A Muzoku Black Opium. Another excellent young female. Lovely head. Uses her neck well to take the eye. Sound in both conformation and movement, just a touch longer in loin. Immaculate coat.

Class 384 OB (5 Entries) Abs: 1

1st: 600 MOORE, Mrs & Mr S & R Samerajerna's Zaluda Of Morval (Swed Imp) Appealing for size and function. In-between coats at present but nothing to hide with regards to conformation. Excellent head shape, feminine but has enough strength to skull. She is well made and stands on functional, oval feet. Moved out very well with reach if front and driving off sound hocks at the rear. Res CC.

2nd: 595 JACKSON, Mr S Ch Elbereth Unisieppari JW. Slightly stronger built all through but no mistaking her gender. Bang-on for body and head ratios. Good angles front and back. Sound enough, just preferred the freedom from profile of the winner. Well presented and a worthy Champion. All quality.
