Judges Critique |
1st Bates’Ch.
Gunthwaite Diamond Lil J.W.
Everything to like about this girl, she is the complete
package. She is balanced throughout and is ideal for size.
Her head is lovely, can’t fault it. She has a strong neck,
well- sloped shoulders and her front assembly is spot on.
Good in body her top line is good and she is strong over the
loin. She has excellent hindquarters, correct tail set and
good strong hocks. On the move she comes into her own and
shows reach and drive giving a fluid easy action. In superb
coat and condition this girl is certainly “fit for purpose”
I was pleased to award her the C.C. and later

with alert expression, clean elegant neck onto lovely shoulder,
good infil to front , deep chest, tight elbows, and strong
