Thank you to Officers and committee of Manchester for inviting me to judge Spanish Water Dogs for the first time, to the exhibitors for entering under me and way in which my decisions were accepted ringside which created a super atmosphere.

Class 487 MPD (1 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: 1872 CAPILLE, Mrs Rachel Lendever's Icing On The Cake - 7 months old black and white bobtailed dog who certainly caught my eye. I loved his overall balance both stacked and on the move, where for one so young he moved with purpose and was true from all angles. His head was typical for the breed of the correct shape. He had a short muscular neck leading to well placed shoulders, standing on straight forelegs with enough bone for his age. Depth to his chest, well sprung ribs, level back leading to well muscled moderate hindquarters and hocks well let down. Super rustic coat of correct woolly texture. BPIB


Class 488 PD (1 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: 1896 THOMPSON, Mrs Kirstie Cooishka Chasing Rainbows - 11 month old who appeared slightly long in body. Balanced head of the correct proportions with kind expression. Good through the neck and leading into well placed shoulders. Standing on straight, well boned forelegs and round tight feet. Hindquarters moderately angulated and hocks well let down. Moved well in profile.

Class 489 JD (1 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: 1873 DARWESH, Mrs Jo & DARWESH, Miss Eliza S Chanderhill Smart Edition For Elizad JW - Stood alone in this class but what a super bobtailed boy who was handled to perfection. Presented in excellent condition with a well maintained coat of correct texture. Balanced masculine head and kind expression, neck short and muscular leading to well laid back shoulders and good return of upper arm, deep chest with a good spring of rib, level back, short strong loin. Straight forelegs, moderately angulated and well muscled hindquarters, well developed second thigh, hocks well let down. Moved with plenty of drive and was true coming and going. RCC.

Class 491 PGD (2 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: 1892 SEDDON, Mrs Amanda & SEDDON, Mr John Mourama Altea - Slightly long in neck, with a short coat, masculine in proportion head with well open nostrils, straight forelegs and well laid back shoulders, deep chest with ribs well back. Muscular hindquarters with width to second thigh and hocks well let down. Moved with enthusiasm with level tail carriage.
2nd: 1893 SLAYMAKER, Mrs A Perrorizado San Andres For Salvajero - Flat skull and head proportions correct, dark expressive eye and strong pigment, ear shape and placement correct, shoulders well laid back, good moderate bend of stifle and hocks well let down. Coat of good texture and condition. Lacked the body and condition of the first and not the movement. BSB


Class 492 LD (2 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: 1874 DONALDSON, Mrs F Prizelands In Our Dreams - A lot to like about this boy presenting a classic outline. Lots of attitude and he looked balanced throughout. Masculine head, powerful strong neck, well laid back shoulders, good return of upper arm. Forelegs straight with good bone, depth to his chest, ribs well sprung, level back and strong loin. Well-muscled hindquarters with hocks well let down. Moved well with a driving rear action.
2nd: 1899 WOOD, Mrs Jan Pabiagas Sergio Sinduda JW - bobtailed boy with balanced head and kind expression. Larger framed than the first but still in proportion. Short muscular neck, well laid back shoulders, straight strong forelegs, round tight feet. Good depth of chest with well sprung ribs with level back and short strong loin. Moderately angulated hindquarters with well let down hocks. Rustic coat of correct woolly texture, cords forming. Moved well but just preferred the rear action of the first today.

Class 493 OD (5 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: 1889 PREECE, Mr Ashley & COOPER, Mr Jake Sh Ch Janamorio Northern Arlo - Impressive robust brown and white bobtailed boy. I judged this dog as a youngster and like him then and he has matured into very good example of the breed. Masculine head of the correct proportions, parallel planes and well set ears. Short muscular neck into well laid back shoulders and good return of upper arm. Standing on straight well boned forelegs and good tight feet. Chest deep and broad with well sprung ribs, level topline which he held throughout. Moderate well muscled hindquarters, with hocks well let down. He has an excellent coat of the correct texture. Moved powerfully around the ring with super footfall. Couldn’t deny him the CC & BOB.
2nd: 1898 WOOD, Mrs Jan Chanderhill Eagle Eye Sinduda - Rustic brown bobbed tailed dog with a balanced masculine head of good proportion, flat skull and expressive eyes. Short muscular neck set well into his shoulders, not as tight in elbow as the first, and I would like a shade more return of upper arm. Standing on well boned forelegs and good tight feet. Well sprung ribs, muscular hindquarters and moderate bend of stifle and hocks well let down. Moved freely covering the ground well.

Class 496 MPB (1 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: 1868 AFFLECK-CARTER, Mrs Sarah Louise Guardian De Los Suenos Vida - very immature young girl who lacked a bit of body today and still needs to settle in front movement but I’m sure this will come in time as she matures.
