Critique for Stakes + BIS

Thank you to the Officers and Committee for my invitation to judge at the Clubss 25th Anniversary show. It was an honour to judge here at such a well run and friendly club. Congratulations to all concerned for a terrific effort and such a warm welcome.

Best in Show

Owen’s Egremont seventh Heaven. WHWT. No surprises of my fondness for this young lady having awarded her a Res CC this year already. At that time she was a puppy and she is maturing nicely into a top quality exhibit. Prettiest of heads with a wicked expression, dark eye, lovely mouth and large teeth. Correct length of neck into good shoulders. Short level back, short body & tail on top. Strong hindquarters which really came into play on the move. Shown in good coat & condition. BIS Congratulations.

Reserve Best in Show

Beckton’s Glengracie Formula One. Scottish Terrier Very showy and attractive wheaten male who never stopped showing and looked terrific standing and on the move. Great head and strong jaw with good scissor bite and large teeth. Strong neck, deep body, strong forelegs, excellent bone and substance. Strong hindquarters and excellent tail set. Again shown in terrific coat and condition.

Best Puppy in Show

Kirk’s Millingford Royal Ermine. Scottish Terrier. Very smart & confident youngster who showed herself to advantage at all times. Beautiful head, dark eye and excellent mouth. Good neck, shoulders and excellent front. In terrific coat & presented to perfection. Showed so well on the move presenting a lovely outline. Just pipped the westie here as I thought she was a touch more mature & settled on the move.

Reserve Best Puppy In Show

Gale’s Bocan Bolt to Bellevue. WHWT This young man surprised me on going over him. There is alot like about him and with maturity I am sure he will have a bright future.

To be critical I would like him with more coat to finish the picture.
