I have not judged the breed for nearly 2 years and was pleased to note the quality of the dogs. However the same could not be said for the quality of the bitches. The majority that came under me still lacked the correct - almost square - outline, being too long in back and/or loin, bitches should be longer just because they are bitches. Size also varied, with at least two just waving the Klein measure. The bitches are the future, breeders must seriously look at their stock and the quality of their show and breeding bitches. Mouths were very good, with only one wry and one level. Many of the exhibits lacked muscle, especially hind muscle, showing lack of exercise which was evident by their movement, the firmest and best developed muscle bing found on my BCC winner.

PD. (4,1). 1. Orr's, Sobriety Element of Freedom. BP. Very well made dog moving very freely around the ring. Nice head with good dark eye. Good front with well laid shoulders. Up to size lets hope he's now stopped. Coat coming thought well. 2. Winder's, Sobriety Diamond Magic. Another nice dog handled well on the table. Would prefer a smaller ear though well placed on head. Turned out hock in slightly which upset the flow of his hind action. 3. Alfred's, Rossfort My Imp at Teamor.

PGD. (4). 1. Chamber's, Incaz Von Zwergen (Imp). Mature masculine chocolate in good coat and condition. Balanced of outline spoilt by low tail set, but not usual handler on the day which may have affected this. Well put together. Good head pattern certainly did enough to win the class. 2. Pooley's, Windlee Short 'A' Sweet at Azkaban. Nice dog, but not as well laid shoulders as I would like to see. Slightly finer in bone than winner with good tail set. Lovely mouth, nice dark eye. 3. Drechslers', Wyndlee Blown in the Wind at Jeansway.

LD. (4,1). 1. Winser's, Nixtev Notorious of Lynsbourne. Black in lovely coat and condition. Neat ears with dark well placed eye. Well presented with good bone and neat feet. Moved well from the rear. 2. Williams', Druitz Black Prince. Black stronger head than the winner. Not in full coat which made him look a little hollow in the middle. Head balanced with well rounded muzzle. Sound dog well balanced. Just preferred the front movement of winner. 3. Clayton's, Studholme White Diamond.

OD. (6,2). 1. Rogerson's, Nosgregor Kateandy Moogi Dhoo. CC and BOB. Chocolate in excellent coat and condition. Last time I judged him he lacked condition but not on the day. Balanced throughout excelling in head pattern and outline with no exaggeration anywhere. Neat well set ears, correct eye placement with well rounded muzzle and good mouth. Correct front and hind angulation with moderate tuckup at loin and well laid tail. Moved extremely well round the ring. 2. Hewett's, Ch. Spellcast Esecret and Lies JW. Another quality dog not in full coat on the day which made him look slightly long but also meant nothing to hide. Lovely head pattern with beautiful dark eye. Good front assembly. Moved very well round the ring. 3. Beard's, Wyndlee Buffalo Soldier.

VD. (1). 1. Chamber's, Ch. Druitz Corncracker for Teamspitz JW Sh CM. RCC. Cream dog looking at his best on the day and pressed hard for the CC. In full coat of excellent presentation working well with his handler. Another balanced dog with no exaggeration. Moved out well around the ring. A worthy winner though he stood alone, a credit to his owner.

PB. (5,1). 1. Orr's, Rossfort Andante with Sobriety. Feminine cream in good coat. Good pigment with dark eye, neat ears used to advantage. Well put together but slightly long in back which may shorten as she matures and drops. Sound mover. 2. Richardson's, Wyndlee Lawdy Miss Clawdy at Jomihvar. Bitch lacking coat but nice in outline. Needs to mature. Correct front and hind angulation with level topline. 3. Alfred's, Rossfort Black Girl at Teamor.

JB. (2). 1. Beard's, Goldenwhin Minnie the Mix. RCC. Lovely feminine black not in full coat as needed a little more length on it but coat she had was of excellent condition. Good body. Not always settled on the move but I think it was her youth and she was certainly enjoying her day out. Nice head and expression. Good in outline. 2. Richardson's, Wyndlee Lawdy Miss Clawdy at Jomihvar.

PGB. (4,3). 1. Beard's, Flamuna Oasis. Nice bitch to handle. Another one full of herself and not that keen on standing on four legs. Good bone, well placed ears and tail. Coat still coming through. Moved ok when she settled.

LB. (5,3). 1. Connor's, Galvizach Limited Design. Sound but bot glamorous bitch in full coat harsh coat. Nice body and good conformation. Good in outline with well carried tail. Easy mover. 2. Orr's, Pufnstuf Put a Spell On You at Sobriety. Another quality bitch different in type to the winner and not in full coat. Lovely pigment with dark well placed eye. Good front with neat feet. I'm sure she will do a lot of winning in full coat.

OB. (3,1). 1. Chamber's, Ch. Nosregor Bewitched for Musique. CC. Feminine chocolate in excellent coat and condition. Beautifully presented. Almost square in outline presenting a very balanced picture. Handled well on the table with good head pattern and expression. Good body and bone with neat feet. Well muscled at the rear showing the undeniable benefit of exercise. Moved easily. 2. Connor's, Galvizach the Choirgirl. Heavier type bitch in full thick coat. Appeared slightly long in back with low set tail. Good head with placed ears.
