Collie Rough

Puppy (4)
1 Wray-Ramsden’s Takhisis Daggers At Dawn. 8 mth old youngster of quality, sporting beautiful head properties of correct planes and proportions. Soundly put together in all departments with good ribbing, correct tail set and carriage under a well prepared jacket of correct texture. Really came into his own on the move, displaying a smooth and easy action on firm hocks. Well handled to get the best from him. BP. Stepped up a notch later in the day to top the Puppy Group. 2 White’s Mejola Top Gun. Another promising puppy developing along the right lines, with a masculine head of correct proportions. Correct eye set and shape and correct muzzle. Nicely put together both fore and aft with well let down hocks and strong back line. Just preferred the more convincing action of the winner here today. 3 Blake’s Oakley Imagine Dragons At Corydon (Imp Che).

Junior (8)
1 Ross’ Siluto Blue Wizzard. Heading this strong class, this young dog of 14 months caught my eye immediately with his typical outline and balanced proportions. Did not disappoint on closer inspection with his strong, masculine head proportions, kind expression and good pigment. Firm neck leading to clean shoulders with complimentary rear assembly. Moved out well. 2 Radford-House’s Kiss Me Kate Di Cambiano at Fivejays. Ultra feminine young lady just out of puppy. Such a pretty head of correct proportions with correct ear set and dark eye all contributing to a captivating typical expression. Soundly built all through and moved out steadily. Pushed the winner hard. 3 Whittaker’s Siluto Blueberry Mist.

Post Graduate (7,2)
1 Phreelancer Phederal Agent at Mejola. This boy impressed with his overall make and shape. Typical head properties, strong neck leading to well placed shoulders, good ribbing and well let down hocks. Just needs to watch his tail at times. Moved out with such a convincing easy action to win the class and RBOB. 2 Chaplin’s Takhisis Lysander. Another sporting an excellent outline on the stand and well put together in all departments. Masculine head with good pigment, well muscled neck, clean shoulders and holding a firm top line throughout. Close up. 3 Siluto Blueberry Mist.

Open (10,4)
1 Allsopp’s Aqualita It’s A Miracle. Have judged this honest dog before and now in full bloom, he continued to impress with his typical, balanced outline, masculine head, super expression and effortless movement. Liked his overall proportions, sound construction, good tail set all under a well prepared jacket of correct texture. Presented in the hard, fit condition I always appreciate. BOB and Group 4. 2nd: Blake’s Corydon The Grandmaster. Pushing the winner all the way, similar comments apply. Lots to like with strong head properties of correct planes and proportions. Correct conformation with matching angles fore and aft. Moved out well. Just preferred the overall proportions of 1. 3 Wray-Ramsden’s Takhisis Lady of Illusions.
