Another very classy hound from this kennel,litter sister to PGD winner .At just 18 mths she has good type and is a quality youngster.A little more finished than her brother she moved with great drive & front reach.Seriously considered her for the Res CC but lost out on maturity today but I am sure these litter mates have a great future.

Pleased to judge one of my favourite breeds,interested and a bit surprised to see out of 13 hounds there were 11 imports!

My main observation was that I had quite a few wobbly fronts ,even on mature hounds but heads, outlines and type ,on the whole , were very good and no dodgy feet.

As always the Greyhound exhibitors are good handlers and get the best out of their exhibits,just a shame we could not be outside,I did try!!

9 mths red,handsome head ,good expression , dark eye & correct ear & set.Lovely outline with good depth & length,looked very nice standing when he settled but still very, very raw on the move.

Promising youngster who I am sure would have benefited from being in a larger outside ring. Best Puppy
