Three Counties
- 9th June 2016
I must
say a huge thank you to the exhibitors you entered today, and with only
1 absentee I was thrilled. I make no apologies for pushing through the
judging, it was hot out there and I didn’t want your dogs out in the sun
for too long which is also why I didn’t move them as much as I would
normally.
There is still a variety of shapes and sizes and while there are some
super specimens in the breed, breeders need to work together to ensure
consistency of type
However, I was very pleased with my line-ups and my winners.

1st
Westwood’s Eusanit Catch Me If You Can
11mth, Good type, nice size and shape. Very pleasing head
of correct shape, enough neck, well made front with good lay of
shoulder, deep chest and short loin. Well muscled rear with
correct tailset and carriage. Nice feet. On the move he is true
coming and going with good reach and drive. |

2nd
Fuard’s Tollelkin Bay of Ice.
9mth, built along
finer lines than 1 and longer through the body. Pleasing head, good
angles fore and aft, deep chest and nice feet. On the move he is true

2nd
Dee’s Melanitta Carelinus 14mth. Lots to like about this young man, good
for size and shape with a nice head. Good bone, well made fore and aft.
Needs to be ‘shown off’ on the stand and encouraged a bit more on the
move.

1st
Strevens’
Erikachen Conaire at Tollisty JW
So much
has been said and written about this young man and after judging
him I can see why. Stood out in this class. Excels in many
areas. Lovely head & neck, well laid shoulders, deep chest with
forechest, well ribbed back to a short loin, lovely rear angles,
correct tailset and carried well. True on the move coming and
going with correct jaunty gait. Had to work hard in the
challenge against the open winner but just had the edge on the
move. BD

Westwood’s Littleriver's O' Canada to Eusanit (Imp)
Another
super young man. Good shape and size. Excels in head and neck,
super front assembly with good depth of chest, nice bone and
good feet. Short loin and a well muscled rear. Lovely on the
move with good tail carriage. Well handled as one would expect.
In the challenge he just didn’t catch the eye quite as much the
PG winner.

1st
Westwood’s Eusanit Best Of The Bunch.
A name well suited &
today was best of the puppies. Lovely head of correct shape.
Super front assembly, deep chest and short loin. Super rear
angles. Nice bone and good feet. Her handler just needs to watch
the dogs rear when standing to ensure she is covering the
ground. True mover and in the challenges kept showing and stood
out to win RBB and BP |
 |
2nd
Thompson’s Ambertollers Fantasy.
Just 6mth and such a
sweetie. Pretty head and well made but rather short on leg at
the moment. Hopefully she will grow on. |

Westwood’s Eusanit Best Of The Bunch |
Post Graduate Bitch
(5,0a)
An intriguing class with a variety of shapes and sizes.
 |
1st
Newson’s Tivalake More Than Wishes
Won on size and
shape over 2. Feminine young lady with a nice shaped head and
good length of neck. Very good front with well laid shoulders &
good depth of chest. Lovely rear angles and best mover in the
class. Lacking in coat today. |
 |
2nd
Littlehales’ Melanitta Ambrose Slightly
taller than 1 and with a little more substance, balanced.
Feminine head of good shape. Well put together both front and
rear. Another good mover but not quite as positive on the move
as 1. |
3rd Wallwork’s Eusanit Chineese Whispers at Schindow
Res Rogers’ Eusanit Chase The Dream
VHC Ward’s Melanitta Galatina
Open Bitch
(4,0a)

1st
Westwood’s Sh Ch Eusanit Apple Of One's Eye JW.
This young lady set
the standard today. Mature, typey with the best of heads and
bodies. A joy to go over, solid and so well made. Super front
assembly, good deep chest and forechest, excels behind. So true
and eye-catching on the move combining a typical carefree
attitude with reach and drive. Pleased to award her BB &
BOB then thrilled to watch her win Gundog Group 4.
Apparently this is a repeat of what she did at last year’s show.
A fabulous achievement.

2nd
Rogers’ Tollyhimmel Drunkun Duck
This 2yr old did not
have the presence of the winner today particularly on the stand
where she did appear to be feeling the heat. She does have a
nice head and is well put together throughout. Particularly like
her rear angles. A steady mover. |
