(1) 1 Draper’s Desalazara Jerez, stood alone but deserved his
win. 10 months, tall imposing youngster who just needs time now to fill out his
frame, good head with lovely eye colour & shape, giving expression. Excellent
pigment, would like tighter lips to complete the picture. Straight topline,
medium angulation, good bone, tail of correct length. Strong hocks which he uses
well when he moves, when he managed to keep it all together on the move went
well for his owner. BP. JD (0).
PGD (3)
These 3 dogs were all of different type & movement won it on the day. 1 Munson’s
Pyrbern Blond Lynx, would just like to say have seen this dog at shows not
enjoying it, but today pulled out all the stops for his owner & did everything
she asked of him, 3 year old light blaireau, has a good overall height & balance
when standing with good angulation. Head I would like a bit more width on back
skull, has nice eyes, with excellent pigment, good body & bone, well muscled,
tight feet & moved out steadily. Well presented; 2 Locket’s Pyradanti
Casinoroyale, 6 year old blaireau dog, appealed for his nice head shape, with
good pigment, tight lips, a bit too much stop. Good body & bone, well presented,
would like more rear angulation, just a bit straight in stifle. It turned out
that this was his first show, so well done. you handled him very well; 3
Meakin’s Amandjena Cleveland Ohio. LD

Connexion, he took my eye on entering the ring & was not disappointed when going
over him. He looked the part today. In excellent coat & body condition, love
this dogs head shape with correct width to length ratio with fill under the eye,
I would like a darker eye, excellent pigmentation. Well presented & moved out
well today. CC & BOB, I was told this was his 3rd ticket today so making him up
to a champion; 2 Ford’s Desalazara Fernando, 2 year old. This dog will have his
day, just needs to body up & mature. He has a stunning head, & beautiful eye,
true Pyrenean expression. And when moving really drives out with his rear. He
just lost out on first to a mature dog; 3 Downes’ Pyrpressure’s My American
Dream at Belshanmish. OD (5) Another

Ward’s Charibere Simply Special at Chezanna, tall imposing looking 2½ year old,

needs time to body up. He will no doubt get his title; 3 Traynor’s Ch Vi’Skaly’s
