Judges Comments:
In this competition, I am looking for a dog of the correct size, with exceptional drive and good reach, allowing for appropriate movement. I was well please with my winner in this regard. Could have benefitted from a bigger mould but otherwise sensational. From a kennel I have liked before, handled very well.

Judges Comments:
To me, the only things I cannot let slide are poor heads and size. You don't usually find a dog who is excellent in both of these areas - my winner being the exception. Feminine, correct in every regard. Not surprised to find her in champions. She was exquisite and the handling gave her the extra boost needed to shine.

Judges Comments:
First and foremost, a dog must be the correct size, then the forequarters, gait and topline can be shown to full effect. Everything else is secondary when I'm judging. My winner had just what I was looking for, ideal in every aspect, right down to the fine details. Handled expertly to really get the best out of her.

Judges Comments:
Wow! My winner truly is one of those 'goosebump' dogs. Everything worked seamlessly together. Like all dogs, he was not faultless, however any faults I did find were blown away by how he held his topline, and glided so effortlessly around the ring. The handling was exceptional - as you need for a dog of this prestige.
