ROTHERSTAFF LA DOLCE VITA

Tidy b/b of eight months, nicely constructed youngster.  At this stage her skull has yet to develop but she is clean fronted with correct shoulder angulation, her topline was level standing and on the move and her rear quarters strong with an acceptable bend of stifle.

Pleasing b/w.  Slightly stronger and more mature than 1st.  Again, nicely constructed.  Skull development coming on with good round eye, correct shoulder angulation and up on pasterns, level topline and well-defined rear quarters.  Lost out to 1st on cosmetic points, the need of a good manicure.  

Eight month b/w, very nice type.  Plenty of bone for a youngster of this age but with balance also.  Very nice headshape with skull development coming on well.  Strong muzzle with good underjaw, clean lipped, ears tidy, round eye.  Strong forequarters with correct shoulder angulation and good depth of brisket.  Nicely ribbed, level topline and well-angulated rear end.  She moved parallel with plenty of drive.  Needs to settle down and gain confidence in the ring and on the move and her young handler can help achieve this.  Best Puppy Bitch.

Nearly twelve month b/b.  Plenty to like about this promising youngster.  Neat and tidy all round.  Attractive headpiece, very nice skull shape, stop and muzzle.  Clean lipped.  Neat ears.  Straight front, good general body shape, dark pigment, moved and handled well.  On the day preferred the overall substance of 1st and felt further maturity will hopefully enhance this young lady.

Standard, quality, typy sixteen month red that I liked very much.  Very nice headpiece, excellent skull shape, round eye and placement, strong muzzle, clean lipped, neat ears giving very pleasing overall expression.  Clean front with correct shoulder angulation and depth of brisket.  Nicely ribbed, topline that is beautifully level on the move, a rarity these days, and enhanced by a low pump handle tail carriage.  Good thigh and upper thigh muscle development.  Moved parallel.  In excellent condition, a credit to her owner.  Pushed very hard for best bitch in the line up but she lost out on maturity.  However, a worthy Reserve Best Bitch.

Nicely put together sixteen month b/w.  Not such defined head as 1st but correct proportions, good eye and eye placement, neat ears.  Good front and depth of brisket, adequately ribbed at this stage, strong rear quarters.  Moved nicely.  Could benefit from some attention to fitness, condition and general tidying up particularly nails but otherwise a pleasing type.
