2nd – Tanashka Magus Krackajak (Quinn)

1st – Belabartok Always Jethro (Taylor)
Puppy In Show
1 year. Nicely made with a good length of upper arm and good depth of chest. Expressive head on good reach of neck leading to well placed shoulders. Good body proportions, not overdone in any way. Moved well with straight front action and was good behind too

.

2nd – Palaway Salam Pax (Macken)
9 months. Bigger pup, stood over ground well, not so deep in chest as winner and a bit loose on the move as a result. Very light eye at present and rather high tail-set.

JUNIOR DOG (2 entries)

1st – Tanashka Acepak Herman (Quinn)
Junior In Show
17.5 months. Strong dog well made and good colour. Good depth of chest and plenty of bone. Well angulated fore and aft, slightly roman nosed but won on overall movement.

2nd – Hanafor Time To Declare (Harris)
13 months. Lots to like about him but just showing lack of maturity. At the “teenage” stage, preferred his head to that of the winner. Could do with a little more depth and was somewhat loose on the move. Good angulation front and rear, would like to see him when he’s older.

INTERMEDIATE DOG (6 entries, 1 absent)

1st – Ch Iceana Gold Point (Mallinson)
Intermediate In Show
Well made dog, not overdone, good proportions. Good head and eye, good reach of neck into well laid shoulders. Straight front with good length of upper arm and depth of chest. Strong rear, moved well.

2nd – Ch Hungargunn Bear Itn Mind (Cragg)
Another lovely dog with lots to like about him. Beautiful head and expression, well proportioned with good front and rear, stood over ground well. Hard decision but handler tended to over-extend him and I just preferred the overall picture of the winner.

3rd – Ch Graebrook Dzina Dorian (Graebrook Kennels)
Finer sort. Nice head and expression, good length of neck into well placed shoulders but lacks depth and very upright in upper arm. However, he was in balance front and rear and moved okay.
