WINDSOR. NORWEGIAN ELKHOUNDS.  2ND JULY.  JUDGE VIVIEN PHILLIPS

I HAD MISSED OUT ON JUDGING THE BREED IN 2020 DUE TO COVID SO I WAS INTERESTED TO SEE HOW IT HAD DEVELOPED SINCE 2016. .   A COUPLE OF NARROWER MUZZLES THAN  CALLED FOR AND MOVEMENT, IN  HINDQUARTERS IN SOME WAS NOT STRONG. THERE WERE EXHIBITS HERE  WHO WERE, IN MY  OPINION LACKING IN SUBSTANCE.  THE STANDARD CALLS FOR GOOD BONE.

SPECIAL BEGINNERS DOG OR BITCH (2)1st:  FRIEND’S ,  BOWERHINTON BOROMIR. 18 MONTH OLD MALE WITH A STRONG HEAD. GOOD MOBILE EARS. CORRECT NECK AND FRONT WITH GOOD FEET. IN GOOD COAT. RIBBING GOES SUFFICIENTLY WELL BACK. MOVED OK RATHER CLOSE BEHIND, BEST SPECIAL BEGINNER 2nd: HARDY-WALLACE’S  BRUMOUS A LYRICAL ECLIPSE. A NICE SHAPE TO THIS BITCH BUT SHE DID NOT WANT ME TO GO OVER HER , SO DIFFICULT TO ASSESS. MOVED OK WHEN SETTLED.  HAD LEFT HER JACKET AT HOME.
