BORDER BLACKPOOL 17 Judge(s): MR D MITCHELL I would like to thank Blackpool for inviting me to give my first CCs, and to the exhibitors for a lovely entry of super dogs, which were a pleasure to go over. My two stewards for doing a sterling job and it was such a shame the weather turned on Friday morning, the heavens opened and it blew a gale, but you turned out nevertheless. Overall I was pleased with the movement back and front, dogs were in good fit condition, some would benefit from ringcraft for both dog and owner. From what I saw today, things look good for the future of our breed. 1 Stevens' Cobstoneway Bayou Sunrise. 7 yr old bitch, strong pleasing head, dark v-shaped ears and dark eye, good mouth, straight front, in harsh double jacket. 2 Baxter's Int/Am GCh/Can Ch Sulan Fancy That. 10 yr old bitch, feminine head, mouth still good, narrow throughout, level topline, in good jacket. 3 Hill's Ragatam Legend. 1 Ruth's Bowencloud Busy Bee. Red grizzle, dark eye and good mouth, nice outline, thick harsh jacket, moved out well. 2 Baxter's Mysulan Mythical Mylo. Smaller blue dog, a little unsettled on the table, needed coat tidying. 1 Guvercin's Baillieswells Glengyle At Glebeheath. Dark eye, nice mouth, straight narrow front, nice lay of shoulder and length of rib, moved out well. 2 Hollingsbee's Tarkaswell Smart Move To Otterwood. Nice for size, easily spannable, coat and pelt good, needed to settle, a bit of a handful for owner. 3 Atkinson's Tojamatt Rhythm N'Blues At Raedwulf. 1 Fleming's Cedarhill Ghost Writer. RCC. I could not take my off this young dog. Dark eye, lovely head and dentition, good reach of neck and good shoulders, narrow, good length of rib and strong in loin, well muscled second thigh, carrot tail, stood on thick pads. 2 Matthews' Tojamatt Moriarty. Strong head, narrow front, nice outline, a little erratic on the move. 3 Spafford's Oakyard Out N' About At Dassett. 1 Fleming's Cedarhill Ghost Writer. 2 Baxter's Mysulan Going Solo JW. Blue dog, pleasing head, narrow throughout, good length of rib and strong loin, moved well. 3 Hollingsbee's Otterwood Caius JW ShCM. 1 Archibald's Lairehope Highland Chief Of Tweedburn. Dark grizzle, easily spannable, carrot tail, handled well. 2 Keeffe's Keebank Charlie's Diamond. Smaller dog, red grizzle, in good coat, moved out well. 3 Jackson & Dugdale's Kirkbyvalley Silent Storm. 1 Hall & Ellis' Brackenfell Ragamuffin. Red grizzle, handy size, in good coat and pelt, easy spannable. 2 Haughton's Chorbeck Chatty Man JW ShCM. Light grizzle, strong head, nice and narrow, good level topline, moved out well. 3 Inness' Grettacs The Wizard ShCM. 1 Hall & Ellis' Ch Brackenfell Bok To Bach JW. DCC. BOS. Well I wasn't disappointed with this dog. Strong otter head, keen dark eye, ear placement finished the head off just nice, straight front, lovely shoulders, flowing into level topline held on the move, harsh jacket, possibly just going over, stood like a pot dog! Moved very nice. 2 Horner's Ch Stineval Napoleon JW. Slightly smaller all round, but all there, straight and narrow, good length of rib, good tight double jacket and thick pelt, stood on nice tight feet. 3 Johnson's Ch Karison Kosta. 1 Horner's Stineval Kordia. Feminine head, dark eye, good dentition, nice length of neck and correct shoulders, narrow front, nice rear movement, double jacket and pelt, showed well for one so young. 2 Ruth's Bowencloud The Bee Charmer. Dark grizzle, pleasing head, needs time and ringcraft for dog and handler. 3 McNicholas' Micustins Little Santa. 1 Martin's Merumhor Blue Jasmine. Blue bitch, nice head, good ears and nice eye, narrow in front, lovely blue jacket with plenty of ticking, short carrot tail, spannable, moved out well. 2 Haughton's Chorbeck Angel Eyes. Good head, nice thick coat and pelt, moved well. 3 Bassett's Lockhaugh Twix. 1 Parry's Oakyard On Song. Another good size bitch in good jacket, well muscled, narrow throughout, good rear angulation, moved well. 2 Gillies' Bordurrock Shoot To Thrill.
