Class 2511 LD (8 Entries) Abs: 2 1st: 5869 FLYNN, Mrs Linda A Sharlarna Philanderer At Linjato BLK>/WHT. I have admired this boy many times in silence from the ringside. He scored high in breed type; his head is large and broad, with a lovely expression well cushioned and a soft expression through the eyes and well marked. His outline is what sold him to me on the day; being windy as it was today, you get a true vision of make and shape as opposed to indoors when the coat takes your eye more.He has a good front, very sound in movement at the rear, with a perfect tail set. All of this is enhanced by a super coat of correct texture. It was my pleasure to award him the CC which I was told afterwards gave him his crown subject to the RKC approval; he later went Best Of Breed. 2nd: 5883 FLEETWOOD, Mrs B Abbeyleigh Man On A MissionBLK/WHT.

 Class 2512 OD (5Entries) Abs: 1 1st: 5886 MILLS, Ms Linda lr Ch Ashaka Come To Bed Eyes BLK?WHT. Here is a dog that can't be ignored his head is beautiful with a melting expression lovely wide blaze and as his name implies his eyes soft and expressive. He is elegant around the neck and shoulders as I like, his topline is held well on the move with a good tail set, his movement is good both coming towards and going away His coat is of exceptional quality and the owner presents beautifully , a close call for the CC but the winner was just more to my liking in balance so today I was happy to award him the Reserve CC. 2nd: 5894 QUINN, Mrs T & Mr A Ch Sharlarna Swindler JWBLK/WHT. Again another good exhibit who loves to please his owner, he is a classic head with good markings and well cushioned , he is a good outline elegant around the neck and shoulders good make and shape on body with level topline. He moved well both in front and behind, tail set on where it should be. And covered the ground well , he doesn't carry the length of coat as the winner , but he is a a worthy champion, he belongs in the company of the top winners. 3rd: 5898 ROONEY, Mr S & GREEN, Mr J & GREEN, Mrs A Ch Jaschin Paw Star Res: 5897 ROONEY, Mr S & GREEN, Mr J & GREEN, Mrs A Ch Jaschin Working Man I Am VHC:
