1st | Micklemess Making Music at Clumbadane - Rudbach |
Lighter dog all through but in balance and keeping a typical outline. Clean eye and scissor bite. Straight front. Well bent stifle and strong hindquarter. Straight and well driven hind movement which won him his place. | |
2nd | Whissgig The Bristolian - Sheppard |
Lovely square head with nice expression, clean eye and no exaggeration. Scissor bite. Straight front legs and well muscled. Preferred this boy for his fuller but still unexaggerated bone and substance, but just not the movement of 1st today. | |
