Puppy Bitch : 5
1.Melville Tsruhnova Tarkheena, BPIS, Balanced mature Gordon bitch outline with good bone and substance, liked her width & depth of forechest & brisket.

Clean well arched neck into laid back shoulders, elbows well under her . Strong topline which she held standing & moving, correct hind angulation moved with flair & purpose.

Graduate Bitch : 6 (1)
1. Palliser & Robson Lignum Tornado JW

Post Graduate Bitch 11 (2)
1. Collingborn Graylacier Princess Sophia RL2, Nothing exaggerated about this girl, a good size and well bodied, head of correct proportions with a sweet expression, dark eye and low ear set, clean well arched neck into correct shoulders ample depth and rib, good bend of stifle, in lovely coat with a rich tan, moved well, handler needs to be more confident to give her more joie de vivre.

Limit Bitch 12 (3)
1. Frew Dunfionn Rysa, A mature bitch with a happy disposition, balanced outline, well-
2. Kilnrae Party Time, Not quite as mature as the winner and I would prefer a little more work to her head but saying that it is of good proportion, she has a good topline and adequate angulation fore & aft.

3. Cuthbertson Lainnireach Whisky Lass
Special Vintage Bitch: 6 (4)
Both these girlies were carrying a little too much weight which showed in their dropped toplines & movement either too sluggish or a little unsound but at 10 & 10.5 I accepted this. Both had lovely head proportions with soft appealing expressions, both had correct bone, good feet and short hocks.
