My co-judge & I agreed on all of the major decisions, with Best In Show to the black & white Ch Tameron Mr Black Xs & Reserve Best In Show & Best Opposite Sex to his half-sister Ch Rossvale Miss Insolence At Tameron. Best Puppy In Show Cedarhythe Xcuse Me Darlin with Best Opposite Sex Puppy to her litter brother Cedarhythe Dirty Dancin. Best Veteran Ch Cedarhythe Classic Design JW ShCM.

It was pleasing to find that lower jaws have improved greatly since I last judged. There are still a few showing white of eye. Also some shoulders were rather upright, bodies narrow & lacking rib. Thankfully, hocks appear to have improvedm with only a few having a sub-luxating joint. As always, coats varied, but there were very few that were too soft & silky.
