Puppy
1st, BP, P Gp 1 & RBPIS: Bakalo Bambu
7-month-old gold and white girl, What a lovely head. Perfect bite of mouth. Good front into nicely shaped ribs. Wow, the movement on this puppy. She owned the ring and would have gone on forever. The only thing I would have liked is a little higher tail set. But what a fab puppy. BPIB, PG1 & RBPIS.
 
(group critique:-delightful Shih Tzu bitch, feminine yet sturdy, lovely head and expression, eye-catching movement and carriage, good coat for age, would just prefer higher tail carriage, pleased to see her go on to RBPIS)

Graduate
1st & RBOB: Harropine Charlie Sheen at Cremfern
2-year-old grey and white male, nice head, a little long in body for me, nice movement. RBOB

Open
1st, BOB, Gp 4: Bakalo Bust My Buttons
20-month-old black and white male and what a fab male. Great head on this dog, excellent mouth. Nice front into great body and ribs. Lovely tail set and movement great. BOB & G4 - was also nice to see that he is the father to my puppy winner.

(group critique:-pleasing type, liked his head and expression, dark eyes, sturdily made body, good coat texture, typical smooth-flowing movement.)
