2nd Junior Standard Poodle
Reserve best of breed
Critique from Judge Mr S Rann “15 month male brown. Very showy lad with good gait & topline. Male in appearance, with plush but harsh enough coat. Would have preferred to see his movement a little less bouncy, as this detracted from the drive required”

“Brown, very lively young man of just over a year. Plenty of coat. Would prefer a shorter back & less tail. Tended to be a bit rangy on the move. When he settles will be a much better picture, needs time”
The Poodle Club Championship Show 25/01/15
2nd Junior Dog
2nd Yearling Dog
Critique from Judge Mrs J Lilley: “Brown with well laid shoulder, this eventually being proved by the excellence of his movement, being light on his feet & covering ground in profile. Just a touch over-excited in this class but, having had quite a bit of exercise outside in the meantime, later proved he could go very well indeed when he calmed down & decided to behave himself. Ring training might help perhaps as the promise is all there?”
