Firstly I would like to thank everyone who entered under me. I had a few absentees due to the hot weather which was understandable. We were first in the ring so the heat wasn’t too bad. 

Class 495 PD (4 entries 2 Abs)

1st  - BRUNGER, Mr C M Shimano Magni - 7 month old,  lovely straight front, tight feet, good wide muzzle with a prounced stop, plently of wrinkle in the head, would like tighter eyes but think this will improve with age, good thickness of neck leading into broad shoulders, presented in good condition and when asked to move he moved really well for such a young dog - happy to award him best puppy. 
2nd:  BAILEY, Mrs Samantha & BAILEY, Mrs Ellen Socrates Bernaux De Picardi (imp) - another lovely strong puppy who I am looking forward to seeing mature. A nice large trapezium head with wide muzzle and good open nostrels.

He has plenty of  bone and good tight feet. Nice deep chest  and lovely topline which he holds on the move.  Moved free and effortlessly even in the heat.  Dog CC AND Best of Breed.
