I appreciated your super entry, and sorry the weather caused problems for many exhibitors. A well organised show and warm hall made all the difference for the Mini Smooths, and sincere thanks to my excellent steward. Overall I found a great variation in type, construction and movement, but I felt the dogs in both challenges reflected and demonstrated exactly what I was looking for. Correct shoulder placement, sound chest construction and well angulated quarters will provide sound movement with reach on the front, drive from behind and a good outline on the move, as well as in standing position. Many looked excellent standing, but movement was poor. There were many who were a few ounces overweight, one rather thin exhibit and some teeth needed attention, which was worrying, otherwise dogs were presented in excellent condition and temperaments were excellent. 

MPD (3) 1 Mills-Jones’ Carlita Made In Wales. Shaded red with good head and reach of neck and excellent ribbing, correctly angulated on the back, moved well in both directions with correct topline and drive. Liked him very much, quality puppy. 2 Bell’s Tolberg Liquorice Torpedo. B/t, another quality puppy here, super type I love with excellent front construction and I just preferred the outline of first on the move today, lovely front action and ribbing. Nice puppy. 3 Kay’s Zilveraat Altered Carbon At Lochlip. 

PD (6, 1) 1 Paget & Carroll’s Metadale Lark Ascending. Another two lovely puppies in this class. S/r, super head, excellent forechest and ribbing with lovely reach and drive as he moved around. Still a little immature but easily earned himself BP over some tough competition and keeping his lovely outline at all times. 2 Reed’s Deercroft Dream Chaser. Quality s/red, unlucky to meet first, excellent head and front assembly and well ribbed, not quite the drive of first on the move but good topline, liked him very much. 3 Jennings’ Jenivon Mr Mischeif. 

JD (2, 1) 1 Mason’s Teckeltown Something Magic JW. B/tan, stood alone but a quality dog, needs to mature perhaps a little more but presented a lovely outline and moved correctly both directions. Super ribbing and nice type. 

PGD (12, 3) 1 Lombardelli’s Kelmbeck Sydney. This s/red came into the ring and really took my eye, so well constructed in all departments, he moved so well and correctly, lovely head and reach of neck, super ribbing and shoulders, correct forechest and good angulation on his quarters, he easily earned himself the RCC. 2 Rees’ Deercroft Dream Chaser. 3 Blackburn-Bennett’s Stargang Terrafirma.

LD (4, 1) 1 Shutt’s Melriding Captain Cook Of Donnadoon. Brindle, quality dog, well assembled all through with everything in the right place, super head and shoulder placement, well ribbed and nice prosternum, correctly angled behind, moved well. 2 Melbourne’s Ambreglo Storm At Melriding (IKC). B/tan, shorter type than first, excellent front and good ribbing, just preferred the outline of first as they moved around the ring. 3 Carey’s Donnadoon Dark Moonbeam For Debbiejay. 

OD (4, 1) 1 Mitchell’s Ch Bronia Biaggio. B/tan, quality dog and really showed himself to advantage today with super head, reach of neck and correct front assembly, he really drove around the ring, demonstrating his reach and drive. His back angulation was correct. I was pleased to award him the CC and BOB. 2 Barrett’s Ayseebee Twinkling Star. B/tan with good head and excellent ribbing, not the forechest of first but nicely ribbed and moved well with correct profile. 3 Scott’s Wolferlow Will Scarlet JW.

MPB (10, 5) 1 Bell’s Tolberg Jelly Tot. B/t, loved this young lady of excellent type with good head and reach of neck, correct shoulder placement and good ribbing, moved truly around the ring. 2 Mills-Jones’ Carlita Welsh Princess. Sh/red, another quality baby, same comments apply, has excellent front and ribbing, just preferred forechest of first but plenty of time to mature. 3 Rose’s Ardenrun Foolish Whisper. 

PB (8, 1) 1 Metcalfe-Bilgin’s Metadale Legacy To The Lark. Sh/red, lovely quality puppy with good head and ribbing, nice compact type, moved and drove well around the ring with correct topline, loved her. 2 Halsall’s Shelsall All About Love. S/red, very similar comments apply as to first, moved very well and well put together and good front, just preferred topline of first on the move today. 3 Kent’s Lokmadi Catherine Wheel JW. JB (11, 3) 1 Mason’s Teckeltown You’re The One JW. B/tan, excellent front assembly with good and excellent ribbing, moved well around the ring keeping her outline. 2 Scott’s Wolferlow La Sioux.

PGB (17, 4) 1 Dare’s Darsoms Zoe. B/tan, loved this little bitch, so compact and type I love and very sound all through, moved correctly and drove around the ring with super topline at all times. One for the top I feel. 2 Kerry’s Kireton Hebe. This b/tan was top quality, sound all through and most of the same comments apply to her.

OB (8, 4) 1 Melbourne, Carroll’s Garthorne Olivia Grace Of Melriding.
