Love Seren and Mac’s critiques from British Utility Breeds Association Open show on 20th March 2022.
Puppy (15/12)
2, Ailsadot Astral Lyra. Eye catching 11 month old black spotted bitch with hand painted spots. Heavier frame than 1 but has many of the same qualities. Beautiful expression and lovely dark eye. Correct scissor bite. Nicely arched neck into good shoulders, level topline, correct tail set and carriage. An overall balanced puppy, was just a little looser on the move than 1 but still showed me enough to warrant her place. Presented in great coat and condition.
Open (9/9)
1, Sophtspot In The Zone. Outstanding 5 year old black spotted male, for me he ticks all the boxes, everything about him says quality. Handsome head, lovely dark eye and kind expression. He holds his ears well and he has a correct scissor bite. Plenty of substance, well muscled throughout, clearly showing he is male but not coarse in any way. Good length of neck into laid back shoulders and well defined withers. Ribs well sprung, deep chest, strong loin, level topline held on the move and his tail is set and held nicely. Elbows are tight to his chest, straight front legs, slight spring in pasterns down to tight cat feet. His ideally balanced front and rear are put to use as he shows off his smooth rhythmic movement which looked effortless. His coat is the icing on the cake, dark black well placed spots, on a clear white background. Presented in excellent coat and condition. Handled well. BOB
