Jaschin Hold that Thought.
Very nice young dog, well balanced, cobby and typical. Lovely eyes giving a correct expression. Good neck into a well laid shoulder, level short topline. Good spring of rib. lovely coat and condition. moved freely round the ring. he will be a force to be reckoned with once hitting the older classes.

PGD.
1st. Mrs G. Blair. Sharlarna Chaos at Bellflows.
Well balanced young dog, Cobby. short level back. typical expression. Shame he was unsure on the table, once over that he will do well. Lovely boy.

A very nice boy needing a bit more development. Somewhat long on the back. Good head, good neck and shoulder.

Nice mature male in good overall condition. Short level topline, well laid shoulders and good chest. Cobby. Very nice, moved calmly and evenly round the ring.

OD.
1st. Miss L Lindsay. Champion Anjuli Trevor.
What can I say about this dog that has not already been said! A beautiful dog, textbook construction. Mature in excellent coat. correct head, lovely eyes, with correct amount of white (...also full of fun) correct nose and wide cheeks. Good width of head and correct ears. Good neck into good lay of shoulder. Short strong level back. good Spring of rib and chest depth 'plenty of lung space' Very good stifle and short strong hocks. He glided round the ring beautifully.
pleased to award him the CC, then BOB against an equally beautiful female. It was tough. Pleased to see him Group 4.  
2nd. Mrs P. Martin. Sharlarna Trouble Maker.RCC.
Similar type to 1st. Lovely head, very breed typical, good eyes showing the correct amount of white, good cheeks with a lovely expression. good neck into well placed shoulder. Short level back. lovely coat and condition. Moved smoothly and effortlessly round the ring. It was unfortunate to meet the 1st as this boy has a lot to offer. It was a difficult decision between these two with 1st being more mature. I feel his day will come.
