"Outstanding dog, lovely head, typical expression, good neck and shoulders, good upperarm,
but could do with a little more angulation, good front and rear, overall well balanced,
looks like he does a day's work, moves freely, front action could be truer."
Fonso (M. Foo Fighter) - open EXC 2
"Very well made with glamorous midgold coat, well presented, would prefer better pigment,
but head overall well balanced, adequate neck, excellent shoulders, well angulated allthrough,
short couples, good bone and cat-like feet, level topline and tailset, powerful, happy mover."
Etsu (M. Eldwin) - open EXC (5)
"Strong male, lovely head and expression with dark pigment, good shoulder layback and upperarm,
the angulation could be better, well presented, in good coat, a little long in loin, but overall well balanced,
good bone and feet, level topline and tailset, moves soundly enough but would be better
if carried a little less weight."
Mimi (Star Light Son Be With Meiepere) - intermediate EXC
"Beautifully balanced bitch, nice feminine head, lovely layback of shoulders, very mature, presents a very balanced picture, handled sympathetically, not happy moving on the floor."
