Thank you for the invitation to judge this lovely friendly show, I thoroughly enjoyed my day. Thanks to my stewards for keeping things running smoothly. Temperaments were all good, though many exhibits could be shown to better advantage with better ring training. I was pleased to find that all had correct double coats.
Minor Puppy Dog (4)1. Landebec Ventura, this 6 month old yellow presented a very balanced picture with good length of leg, short-coupled with a level topline & good tailset, he has a good head with decent length of muzzle & lovely pigment. Moved out well enough for a baby.2. Binnaig Sea Barnacle on Flyenpyg, another nice 6 mo yellow, similar in head, longer cast & little uneven in topline at this stage. Neat feet & moved out well.3. Lapema Sea Biscuit for Brandelle
Puppy Dog (2 )1. Darmilye Dare to Dream, 11 months black with a lovely outline when he manages to stand still. Good reach of neck, well angled fore & rear, good bone & feet. Tail needs to thicken up. Moved true & with good drive.2. B Sea Barnacle on F
Junior Dog (6,1abs)1. Shanorrell Seamus Coleman at Halshimoor NAF TAF, this young black has the most beautiful head, with kind expressive eyes, broad muzzle of correct proportion to skull & well placed ears. Good length of neck into well placed shoulders, a little upright in upper arm, well sprung ribs, a level topline leading to well set on super otter tail. Stands on neat feet, moved soundly & well presented. RBD2. Flyenpyg Jurgen Chopp JW. This 9 month black boy has still to mature but has everything in the right place for his age. Good reach of neck into well placed shoulder & upper arm, broad through rib & body, short coupled. Good length of leg. Not quite as together on the move as 1, but a lovely puppy. BPD, BPIS3.

He is well angled fore & rear & stands on good bone & tidy feet. Moved with drive, just not quite the accuracy of movement of the bitches in the challenge today. BD, BOS2.
