Judges opinion of Specialty Show:
I would like to thank all the exhibitors for takeing my decisions in such a sportmanlike way as that makes all the difference to create such good and relaxed atmosphere we did have.
Judge (at right) with BOB dog
There were some really top class dogs that could win anywhere in the world and in some cases it was just ‘hairsplitting’ between the winners and the others in the line up. In some cases the heads seems a bit strange and also some had very round eyes, not really what the breedstandard calls for. I also think some breeders have to watch that their stock don´t get too small and trying to keep the specimen within the required messure for males and bitches. One thing that I am very serious about is the layback of shoulders with a wellangulated and long upperarm, as that makes such different in the whole conformation of the dog, not to forget that some are still working their dogs and when out doing that and the dog is jumping all it´s weight comes down on it´s front and therefore it´s such important to have the essentials for the layback of shoulders. Most of the dogs had a very good quality of coat, which I did found although some were dead out of coat. Most of the dogs had a good tailset, as if the tail is set far too low, it makes the dog unbalanced both standing and on the move.
I know you are all pretty much new in the breed, but you have come far and it looks like you knows what you are aming for and that is something to go on working with. I wish you all a bright future with your dogs and hopefully we will see you out in the Europe in the future!! Good luck!
