THE WELSH KENNEL CLUB
CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW

COLLIE SMOOOTH


Dogs.

MPD (1) 1.Hindes Snuggletooth Filly's Fell at Chicnoir 6mnths tri very nice for type he has a good outline, nice head with good stop, and well placed eye, giving the desired expression, as his age suggests needs to flatten a little inskull,, he has good ears, only needs to firm up in backline and strengthen in bone, he has a good turn of stifle, as he was quite excited with the proceedings, his movement was difficult to assess promising baby.


PD 2 1 Hindes Chicnoir Best Mate Well grown 11mnths sable, he presents a good overall profile, good depth of rib, moved well behind, but inclined to toe in slightly in front, a little heavy in head, he has a moulded foreface, although I would prefer a better stop placement, well placed eye, and well filled skull. Well handled. BPD

2. Moores Manordeifi Solar Eclipse Tri almost a yr., he is very well grown, and I would consider him to be themaximum size and quite long in body, consequently he needs to firm up in back line, and I would prefer him better angulated behind, he is very masculine in outlook and rather too deep through in head profile and needs to fill in backskull, I feel he is a dog who needs time to come into himself.


JD 2 1. Chicnoir Best Mate.

2. Manordeifi Solar Eclipse.


PGD 6 (1) 1. How nice to see a class of mostly sables considering the tri's & merle's are in predominance, this class was headed by Norman's Foxearth Flashpast 18 mnths sable who had everything right about him, perhaps not the neck & glamour of the 2nd but what a quality dog!
This dog impressed me enormously as he has the most beautiful head with parallel planes just the right amount of stop, well placed eye, moulded foreface, and beautiful ears, good front depth of rib, and hindquarters, initially he started pacing, but on moving for the second time he settled down into a steady gait, he can lift his tail a little, but found hewas not isolated in this respect feel this dog will be a great asset to the breed, as he has a great deal to offer, within time, I think he will undoubtedly achieve his title with ease, he came extremely close to taking the CC, just did not settle down enough on the move today Reserve CC.

2. Hindes Foxearth Olivers Footprint to Chicnoir 22mnths sable he certainly takes the eye for his overall glamour, he has a superb neck & shoulder, and full shawl collar, he is quite well grown, therefore not quite the angulation behind of the winner moved a little erratic in front, but quite well behind, he has a well filled skull, good ears, and a well placed eye, I would prefer a better stop placement, also a better nose & lipline in profile.

3. Evans Southcombe Sunset Shadow.


LD. 4. 1.Griffiths Alopex Going Equipped Merle almost 3yrs the most mature quite glamorous with full collar using his neck well, good depth of body, he has quite a heavy patch on one side, although a striking colour, he moved well, being happy with his tail, he has a very well moulded head with well filled force good stop & well filled skull, and very good ears, which he used, his expression is spoiled somewhat as he is rather full & light in eye, but he is a masculine upstanding dog, presenting a good profile,well muscled with good bone.

2. Haywards Foxearth Flexible Friend. Tri of 18months who appealed greatly for his head eye & expression, not quite the depth of rib as 1 and less mature, has all the basic essentials, although he seemed somewhat distracted at times, moved quite well, happy with his tail, one whom it will be interesting to see how he matures.

3. Hindes Chicnoir Quartermasater.

Open 6 (1) 1. Macgregors Ch Moonwalker from Mistoff 4yrold tri in his prime, looked impressive standing, as he stands four square, with good hind angulation and well muscled, he presents a good profile, although I would prefer him stronger in backline, he has a well moulded head. With well-filled skull, good stop, & moulded forface, well placed eye, and good ears, I would prefer him with a tighter lipline, however, he is a balanced dog, who moved well and gave of his best. CC & B.O.B.

2. Kinsey Foxearth Finlander of Sturtmoor 2 yr. old merle and much less mature, however, he has a clean head, with good stop, flat skull and a beautiful eye & expression, and good ears, not quite the shoulders of 1,and needs to develop in his foreshest, but has good hind angulation and movement &maturity which will take him further.

3. Tucks Dark Motif from Misstoff.


Bitches.

MPB 4 (1)
1. Sewells Foxearth Fickle via Lewarne immediately took my eye, for her outstanding profile, although she is well enough grown for her 6mnths, she has a swan like neck let into excellent shoulders, good length of body, good front & hindquarters, she has a well filled flatskull & superb ears, well placed eye and rounded foreface, as she is only a baby one can forgive her lack of stop, as she has everything else going for her a promising puppy.

2. Glencorrie Beorgeous tri of just 7mnths again has the outline which takes the eye, although shorter coupled than 1, stands well in front, good bone & she is very sweet in eye & expression with good ears, her stop breaks rather low, she has good hindquarters, and moved well.

3. Curtis's Snuggletooth Filly's Fancy.


PB 3 (1) 1. Moores Manordeife Silver Dawn appealed and took my eye when she came into the ring,
11monthsmerle, although at this age is in need of a cast, as she is showing sable overtones in her coat, however, her head is quite lovely with will filled flat skull, good stop, moulded forface, and good underjaw, she has good ear carriage, lovely dark eye giving the desired expression, she has a good neck & outline, good bone & hindquarters, unfortunately she has a high tail set, which invariably spoils the picture on the move, however, her virtues far outweighed this common fault throughout the breed and won BP.

2. Frenchs Chicnoir Sabretta 9mnths tri sweet bitch very sound moving behind, with excellent tail carriage, but her front action leaves room for improvement, she has a well placed eye and good ears, needs to settle in head.

JB. 1. Manordeifi Silver Dawn

PGB 5 1, MacGregors Southcombe Sophisticate at Rowvale tri by far the most mature, perhaps a little on the heavy side, but she has a lovely neck shoulder she has all the glamour with full white collar, showing sable overtones in her coat and looks as if she could be about to cast,good depth of rib.and moved very soundly, she has a good head with parallel planes,good skull & dark eye, and beautiful ears, I feel she is strong enough in forface,and a little lippy, she moved very soundly and could not be denied the class.

2. Douglas's Foxearth Speckled Wood tri initially thought would be the winner, she is a feminine with beautiful body lines and just right for size, she is very sweet in outlook with a lovely eye & expression,
She has a little white blaze to one side, which was quite attractive, although today was suffering from a sore eye, it was a pity that she insisted on pacing on the move, after several attempts she improved a little but her movement was quite inconsistent with her construction.

3. Frenchs Chicnoir Eternal Star at Tfrendet.


Limit 6 1. Gays Hilltarn Kiri at Yagane This bitch is quite a heavily marked blue, but having said that she has quite a number of virtues, she presented a good overall profile, with her lovely head, with parallel planes correct stop, blue & brown eyes, moulded forface and good lip line, good neck & shoulder, her movement was a joy to see as she moved with considerable drive from the rear, and excellent front extension when viewed in profile, stood and showed well.

2, Speding Antoc Fascination feminine tri who presents an attractive outline, another sound moving bitch, she has a pretty head, with well placed eye giving the desired expression, good ears, good neck, I feel she needs time to mature in body and would like to see her stronger in bone, nevertheless a lovely bitch.

3.Hills Devern Dark Mistress.


OB 5 This was a very nice class, all were top class bitches, which were a joy to handle.

1. Haywards Foxearth Castles in the Sky g/s almost 2yrs old, ultra feminine with a beautiful neck & outline good depth &spring of rib,having all the glamour to take the eye, she has a full collar and straight front to enhance her profile, I would prefer her to be firmer in backline, but she is quite an independent young lady who had other ideas than striking a pose, she eventually settled enough for me to assess her most lovely head, with parallel planes, flat skull, correct stop, &moulded forface, correctly placed dark eye, giving the sweetest of expression,she eventually settled & transformed into a most elegant stature, moved quite well with good tail carriage. I thought her quite lovely. CC

2. Hills Devern Blue Silhoette merle who really pressed the winner hard, she looked a picture standing, with her glorious reach of neck, excellent body & bone, she has the most lovely head, with well filled skull correct stop, moulding of forface, her most lovely eye & expression, together with good ear carriage enhanced her overall outlook, moved quite well, slightly stronger than 1 in head, but in complete balance, I gave her father a CC therefore it was not surprising that I found her a feminine version of the same

3. Curtis's Ch Snuggletooth Flurry's Filly.
