BABY PUPPY DOG (8 entries, 2 absent)

Difficult class because all were at different stages so it’s all about potential. I have a general concern re ears not been strong enough in older dogs (although you must remember we do not have baby puppy classes in the UK and there were not problems with the more mature dogs).

1. Vashka Solar Chemistry (Miss Lorraine Woods)
a real baby but showing great potential, lovely conformation, excellent tail set and super head, should do well, good ear carriage and placement.

2. Kimark Imperial Illusion (Miss K Wardle)
lovely outline, head still needs to develop and tail too curled, ears still need to come up.

3. Kimchatka Might N Power (TAR & EB Maitland)
apart from its ears (which I hope will come right) this is the best of the rest, perhaps a little long in body but good shaped head, good angulation fore and aft.

MINOR PUPPY DOG (2 entries)

1. Anaky Absolutely Cruisin (A & K Hill)
lovely example of the breed, excellent head and expression, very good outline and conformation, very good tail, good harsh topcoat coming through.

2. Snowispa Dante Of Oberon (Mrs B Lawton)
carrying too much puppy fat and very upright in shoulder, too tall at this age, already looks too big and too long, nice head and expression though, good tail.

PUPPY DOG (6 entries)

1. Apolar Bear Necessities (Mrs JM Wales)
this is an excellent example of the breed, lovely expression, excellent outline and conformation, good angulation, super coat, muzzle could be a fraction longer, excellent on the move.

2. Aldonza The Play Boy (Fay Tucker)
another good one, slightly better head than 1., but less good tail set and carriage and a little longer in back, lovely coat, close up to 1.

3. Adski Dream Machine (D & D Brown)
good head and expression, but narrow in front affecting movement, too long in back, good coat, body too bulky overall.

JUNIOR DOG (6 entries)

1. Aldonza Who Gives A Muck (Fay Tucker)
very good example of the breed, good outline, excellent on the move, lovely head and expression, ears correctly placed (some dogs in this class had ears set much too high on the head), very good tailset, excellent coat.

2. Zamora Royale Czar (Vanessa Spence)
lacking in size but excellent outline and conformation, good head and expression, good angulation.

3. Kimark Excalibur (Miss K Wardle)
lacking in size too but very attractive expression despite slightly short muzzle, nice biscuit shading to coat, moved well.

INTERMEDIATE DOG (12 entries, 2 absent)

1. Silvertips Walk N Th Wild Side (Imp NZ) (John & Dawn Wilders)
superb, absolutely typical Samoyed expression, a truly lovely head, excellent conformation, superb tail set and carriage, a fraction long in body (or perhaps could do with extra length of leg for perfection), moved well too.

2. Samloch Sunlit Tusk (P & M Hill)
very well shaped dog, not quite the expression of 1., but still an excellent head, could do with more size but proportions are just right, good on the move.

3. Mezen With Approval (Mr M & Mrs K Hall)
good sized dog, good head, perhaps a little short in neck, superb coat, good angulation and movement.

4. Ch Apolar Nite N Whyt Satin (Mrs JM Wales)
good example of the breed, but could do with more neck, rather heavy in chest, moved well, expression well balanced but a little plain.

AUSTRALIAN BRED DOG (14 entries, 2 absent)

Super class with many excellent dogs

1. Ch Kalaska Grand Excellence (D Klaaysen & K O'Riley)
lovely example of the breed, quality throughout, lovely head and expression, excellent conformation, superb coat, very good feet, good movement too.

2. Ch Kimchatka Fire On Ice (D & D Brown)
fabulous example of the breed, 10 years old and going strong, lovely head, superb coat, moved very well.

3. Snerzok Chase The Dream (John & Dawn Wilders)
beautifully headed dog, a fraction long in body but excellent coat, moved very well.

4. Ch Kalaska Lucky Star Of Gem (Mrs A Mangin)
lovely outline, excellent head, could have a fraction more neck and length of tail, superb coat.

OPEN DOG (18 entries)

1. Ch Aldonza Toy Boy De McCoy (Fay Tucker)
superb example of the breed, just right in every respect, excellent on the move, lovely head and body, superb conformation coat feet and tail.

2. Gr Ch Anaky Party Animal (A & K Hill)
another good one, a little longer in the body but all the other attributes of 1., very good correct pasterns and feet.

3. Ch Aldonza HRH My Lord Muck (Fay Tucker)
very good too, a little long in body and rather soft coat, otherwise excellent

4. Gr Ch Elgianto Secret Avenger (J Oates & P Phillips)
beautiful conformation and outline, masculine head but too small overall for a dog.

1. Snowbrook Sno Madonna (Ms Sylvia Sharpe)
lovely well grown puppy, excellent head outline and tailset, lots of potential.

2. Vashka Sun Chemistry (Miss Lorraine Woods)
tiny body but with excellent conformation, gorgeous head and lovely shape, tail may be set on too low – time will tell.

carrying some puppy fat, but lovely head and expression, might turn out a little long in back.

1. Anaky Absolutely Fabulous (M Ginger & A & K Hill)
beautiful shape, lovely head and expression, moved well, should do very well even if she is a little long in back.

nice outline but a little too ‘chunky’ and long in back, lovely head and expression, very good ears though, tail rather short.

3. Snowispa Jaeda Of Oberon (Mrs C Hill)
excellent type, lovely head, too ‘doggy’ for a bitch and with a barrel chest, another one a little too long in back.

PUPPY BITCH (6 entries, 1 absent)

lovely in every respect, except for length of back, beautiful tail and superb head.

beautiful example of the breed with a superb outline when standing correctly (has a tendency to stand short but this is in the handling not the dog), gorgeous head and absolutely typical expression.

lovely head and expression, a little too long in body, lovely tail and excellent angulation.
