Southern Counties Canine Association

I selected the following worthy dogs, but who remained unplaced:

Bearded Collie Ch. Orora's French Silk At Merrimak, the Collie Rough Int.Fin.Est.Ch. Skabona Wish Me Luck, the Hungarian Puli Ch. Kashbeluli There We Are The and the Smooth Collie Ch. Blamorder Double or Quits of Oakestelle from the AVNSC class.

Group 1: Border Collie Sh.Ch. Thwaitlake Buzzman

A dog combining strengh and power with quality, he is strong and masculine, yet his shape and outline gives him elegance and flow of lines. Strong, masculine head with a keen expression. Very good ears. Neck with a good rise and strength, well set into his laid-back shoulders. Well angulated both ends. Strong and firm topline. Just the right amount of depth and width of chest and body. Well set tail, continuing the flow of lines. Excellent coat in lovely condition. He moved out very well indeed, at all times keeping his lovely shape and balance and with his head characteristically carried low and forward.

Group 2: Polish Lowland Sheepdog Ch. Mybeards Sweep

This dog truly filled my eye with his lovely and highly typical shape and outline. Ideal in size and substance, he scores both in masculinity and in quality. Typical head with ideal shape and proportions, very good ears and expression. Well set and carried ears. Stong, crested and well set neck. Well angulated both ends, he looked just stunninig when he put weight over his front legs. Excellen topline and tailset. Super coat. He moved soundly and efficiently from all angles, at all times keeping his shape and balance. 

Group 3: Australian Cattle Dog Ch. Greatest of All Time Celirbod Village at Austman

Lovely male of excellent type, outline and quality. Typical head with strength and masculinity, very wel proportioned and expressive. Excellent ears. Neck of excellent length and strengh. Balanced angulation both ends. Excellent topline and tail both standing and on the move. Lovery coat and colour. Another who was a sound and efficient mover, particularly from the side and in front, good enough from behind.

Group 4: Swedish Vallhund Ch. Aescwine Ampelography

A lovely, feminine bitch, excelling in proportions and outline. She has a very typical, well shaped and feminine head with correct length of skull and muzzle. Excellent ears. A neck that matches her head and body propotions, well set into a well angulated front, which again matches her rear. Strong, firm topline with just the right length for her bred. Well set and well carried tail. Excellent coat and colour. A very sound and active mover from all angles.
