East of England Championship Show (06-07-2014)

First Place in Open - Dog, Judge: Miss Jean Singh

Show Critique:

I would like to thank my stewards who kept the event running smoothly. My decisions were made on the exhibit on the day
I found heavy ears are creeping in, detracting from the otter head and keen expression. An excessive amount of exhibits were not in hard, toned condition. ‘Couch potato’ dogs come to mind. Front movement is also a cause for concern. I found two level mouths, one just level and a puppy , had a tooth out of line. My decision on some unplaced exhibits were a culmination of a long foreface and untypical expression, unspannable even though I gave some leeway and poor front movement.

Placing Critique:

very typical dog , good otter head and pleasing ear set and expression, dark eye and good mouth. He has a level topline and a good tail set. His front was straight with good bone and neat feet. He was spannable and has a strong loin and nice angulation. He moved and showed well. RCC
