Best Puppy Dog Towse's Miletree Constellation

My thanks to the Northern CKCS Society for inviting me to judge at this very well organised ruby anniversary show. I was delighted both with the quantity and quality of the entry although there was a huge variation in size and type. Pigment and eyes were generally good but I was disappointed to find an increasing number of incorrect mouths and inefficient, particularly hind, movement. Special thanks to my very efficient stewards Lynn Crane and Elaine Waddington 

Veteran Dog (6,1a) Unusually all wholecolours
1st Koster's Ch Harana Starman 8 year old black/tan, still looking very much a champion, lovely head with large dark eyes and soft expression, well constructed and moved well, profuse, long silky coat.
2nd Rogerson's Rabymar Waltzing Darkie Another sound 8 year old Black/tan. Shorter coupled and a tidy mover. Preferred the reach of neck and coat of winner.
3rd Humpage's Dunadrob Just William

Minor Puppy Dog(24, 2) A lot of very promising youngsters in both this and the puppy class.
1st Surman's Cavaliegh Beau Geste 9 months and maturing nicely, well broken blenheim dog with silky coat, lovely eyes and gentle expression, correct bite, well cushioned muzzle, good reach of neck and spring of rib, short coupled, moved soundly.
2nd Boyd's Wandris Comedian at Airlie Giving away a lot in maturity to the winner but loved the balance of this smaller blenheim dog, lovely expression with large dark eye, correct bite, level topline and correct tail carriage, moved with drive. Very promising.
3rd Towse's Miletree Northern Star

Puppy Dog (13, 1)
1st Towse's Miletree Constellation months old, very promising, richly marked blenheim puppy, wide blaze with clearly defined head markings and large dark eye, coat coming on nicely, well put together, moved well and happily. Best puppy dog and a very worthy best puppy in show.
