2nd Ursa Major of Skyrocket at Zavisha 

Another I would like a little more of her but lovely shape to her. Correct head, lean with correct width between ears and good length with nice low set ears. Good correct movement standing on nice tight rounded arched feet. 

Open 1

1st Sh Ch/Int Multi Ch Nicael Blue Diamond Amoung Ohanava VW ShCEX – Wallington 

9 yrs old and my notes say so sound with fabulous shape and substance. Lovely head of correct shape with a lovely tight eye and kind expression. Topline level, good deep chest and correct length from withers to chest and chest to feet. Would like a slightly shorter toe to give the correct shape to feet. BOB  

 Lagotto Romagnolo

Junior 0

Post Grad 1 

Bedeslea Prada Paradoxe – Cuddy, Cuddy & Norbury

Up on size, good coat and texture to it & correct curl. Really lovely squarely built shape standing on correct round feet with good arch . Liked his height from floor to withers mirroring the correct back length. Moderate broad head with good tight eyes of correct colour and round shape. RBOB

Open 1

1st Made Chianti for Timtaurn JW – Stephenson

Loved the shape of her, nothing over done in any way just flowing and correct. Good rough wooly coat with nice curl through the body. Good compact shape with muscle tone throughout holding her well on the move to drive out. Lovely clean front angulation with correct length of neck, not too long with good arch to give her a lovely shape going into well set muscular shoulders. Rear angulation correct again with no exaggeration just fitting well into herself. BOB & Group 2 

Golden Retriever 

Puppy 4 (2)

1st Laurenley Lady Sybil – Ward

6mth puppy. Fabulous shape to her giving a good profile from length of back to height of leg – good deep chest, straight front with good feet. She just needs to tighten on the move but is only a baby. Won the class on her head which I really liked, she had a good broad skull and such a lovely expression with correct eye colour and shape. BP & Group 3  

2nd Olvinglay Poloari (imp Ita) – Morss & Monteverde

A much larger boy all round, and needs to settle into himself more. His head and front are top heavy for a correct outline at the moment but has time on his side to settle more and mature up. 

Junior - 1

1st Rosgar Fly me to the Moon – Apps

A lovely eye catching dog, with a superb shape in frame and doesn’t disappoint on the move. He naturally moves and flows round the ring with an elegance to him. Head of lovely broad width to him and nice eye set, good flow of neck into good shoulders and good height of leg to length. Firm topline and strong loin, good straight hocks. Moved with drive. BOB

Post Graduate 5 (2)

1st Wynrita Call me Elder Prince for Honeymill - Kinchella

A larger boy all round but very soundly constructed. Nice bend of stifle and good hocks, tail set good and carried well. Front nice and straight with good feet and length to leg with good ground clearance. Broad skull with good eye shape and colour. 

2nd Smaller throughout, good bone and length of back to height ratio. Would prefer more angulation throughout and a stronger head. 

Open 3 (2)

1st Mossburn Golly Miss Molly JW – Pounds-Longhurst

Nice shape to her but smaller throughout. She slightly looses topline on the move. Nice rear angulation and good hocks feet nice shape and correct arch. Neck and shoulders correct would just like to see her a bit more of leg length. Head good shape and kind expression. RBOB

Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever

Junior 2 

1st Tollisty Jotunn – Smith 

Really liked this boy, a good shape and height to him with an abundance of coat. He had good substance throughout and very mature for his age. Head lean with good width between ears, expression correct with nice tight eyes and colour. Neck strong and arched leading to good forequarters with nice length of leg. Body well muscled and held well on the move. Still time to mature up and come into his own more. BP

2nd Tollisty Thrymhem – Lashly

Although I see from the catalogue he is litter brother, he is all legs and feet at the moment and needs to mature and drop into himself and settle on movement. Lots to like though and will be interesting to see him mature up.  

Post Graduate 

1st Tollisty Blow your Mind at Citanabel JW – Lashly

Lovely shape on the stack and correct gait when moving – good drive and correct tail action. Nice width to rear skull and good length of muzzle squaring at nose. Eyes good colour and shape. Level short back with good loin. Ribs well sprung, firm loin and good set on of tail. Good width of thigh and straight hocks. Nice moderate bend of stifle. RBOB

2nd Tollisty Couldn’t Careless - Smith 

Slightly smaller frame throughout, would prefer slightly more head size to her although a good expression and shape. Moved well and with good drive, although would prefer more arching to her feet.  

Open 4

1st Tollisty Out to Get you JW – Lam & Leung

A really lovely class to judge.  

Balanced shape throughout and kept well on the move with great style and drive. Nice length of back to height ratio. Neck and shoulders well set and good front legs and feet. Eye colour nice in keeping with coat, broad between eyes and good length of foreface. Ear set correct and good arch to neck. Tail carried well on the move from a correct tailset and rear angulation. 

2nd Tollisty Raudr – Smith 

Another lovely dog but just for me a tad too much of him throughout, although everything is so well balanced and correct. He moves so well round the ring with good stride and power, perhaps tail can be a bit too much but set on is correct so think he just is proud of it. Nice forequarters with good arch of neck and clean shoulders, ribs well sprung and correct loin into moderately angled rear end. 

Gundog Group 

Such a lovely strong Group & Puppy Group which I really enjoyed judging, thank you to fellow judges for giving me some fabulous dogs.
