Reserve BIS, BCC, 1st OB2022Shih Tzu ClubMr M HittI have admired this bitch for some time and was not disappointed on the day. A solid gold bitch of 7 years of age. She oozes breed type and has that typical feminine Shih Tzu expression combined with the necessary degree of arrogance. Lovely broad round head, large round dark eyes giving a wonderful expression, a well placed tip tilted nose with the correct stop and wide open nostrils, a square wide jaw with a good chin and wide muzzle that again helps to give the expression I was looking for. Good bone and substance, nice arch to the neck leading to well laid back shoulders with good width in front and a deep broad chest. Well ribbed with a level topline and good tailset and carriage. She has a lovely balanced outline both standing and on the move. She has excellent reach and drive and moved smoothly around the ring showing full pad. Delighted to award her the BCC, RBIS & BOS

2nd Open Bitch2021LKAMr I MillarQuality, mature lady who attracts at once for her look of sheer type. I gave her mum a ticket and clearly admire her breeding. To-day, she was not entirely settled or co-operative and stood a trifle hunched at times. She has breed attributes galore, however, not least in her lovely head and eyes and was in grand coat. I was happy to call her back to challenge for the reserve ticket but she did not want to play.
1st Open Bitch2021BUBAMr T WareingAnother classy act. A broad head, with dark round eyes, well pigmented nose and a wide jaw resulting in another melting expression. Good length of neck, leading to a ’spirit-level’ topline. Great balance, correct body and bone throughout with beautiful ’free’ movement. A proven, winning girl with an impressive number of class wins.
