Thoroughly enjoyed judging this delightful breed. I would like to thank the Cruft’s Committee for inviting me and my stewards for their help.
Veteran dog 2/0 Both exhibits were in great fettle and obviously enjoying their time in the ring.
1st Barge & Hardwicke’s Baktwins Sunseekersmart 12 year old black and tan, good head proportions, cobby and low to ground, plenty of bone, harsh coat. Short straight tail, moved with purpose. Lovely example of the breed.
2nd Nutkin’s Tebrun Favour. Pleasing 8 year old. Not such good type as one being slightly higher on the leg. Harsh coat. Moved and showed well.
Puppy dog 2/0 – 1st Crawley’s Ragus Comedy King, mature young red just 9 months. Excellent breed type, balanced head and expression, a little short in neck, level top line. Good for bone and feet. Strode out well with good propulsion. Has a harsh coat in good order.
2nd Stevenson’s Brickin Super Charge, lighter type than one, having less bone and higher on the leg at the moment. Pleasing head and expression, good coat texture, showed and moved well.
Junior dog 2/0 – 1st Thompson-Morgan’s Belleville Total Eclipse, the best of heads and his adorable, cheeky expression stole my heart, He is so well made being short in the back, and correct angulation for and aft. Good amount of bone for his size, cat like feet. His movement is true, positive and full of joy. He clearly loved every minute he was in the ring. Superbly presented. Delighted to award him DCC & BOB
2nd Page’s ContillyAsk No Questions Between Winflash, smart typey youngster well put together, pleasing head, not the charm of one, however he moved and showed well.
Post graduate dog 2/1 – 1st Grave’s Pipsacre Morning Tide, in super harsh coat, good head proportions, neat ears. A little upright in shoulder and tail a little low set, at one with his handler and showed well
Limit dog 5/0 – 1st Ackling & Dingle’s Kreatin Extra Factor, cracking lad, ultra smart, excels in head and expression. Could have better lay of shoulder and length of upper arm, level top line, short back. Movement ok. Harsh coat, excellent presentation, Showed his socks of.
