JD (2) 1 Lesandnic State Man (Patton) What a lovely start to my first appointment in this variety. This youngster really impressed, at 16 months there was nothing I didn’t like about him, obviously has a great temperament, every time I looked at him that strong tail wagged. Balanced all through from his impressive head, masculine, tapering from skull to muzzle, dark almond shaped eyes, firm neck set into well laid shoulders, excellent forequarters with prominent sternum, deep oval chest well supported, firm level topline, well angulated rear quarters, moved out with ease displaying reach and drive. Once he finishes off and bodies up will be hard to beat. 2 Jager at Woodloch (Crosbie) harshly coated 14 month youngster, pleasing head, tapering muzzle, with strong bite.
