Entry 72

 Ch Aldoushire Burlesque Babe (Dita)
Bitch Challenge & Best In Show/NZ Bred In Show

- Critique -

Black brindle.  A stand out in this class as she entered the ring.  This bitch oozes breed type, standing four square.  Correct from any angle.  Head is deep and broad ultra clean lipped, scissor bite, dark round eyes well placed, thin rose ears made this picture complete.  Strong neck flowed into straight front of good bone and deep brisket, feet well padded and dark short nails.  Great spring of rib short muscular back and level top line held on the move.  Muscle tone in her rear quarters was second to none with short hocks and tremendous second thigh.  Correct tail set and trimmed was the finishing touch.  Moved with reach and drive.  Handled superbly on the day in which other exhibitors could take a lesson in.  My pleasure to award her CC and BIS.

B/Br bitch who oozed breed type and quality.  Couldn't take my eyes off her when she entered the ring.  Quality was apparent here and she certainly didn't disappoint when i examined her.  Cracking head, clean, strong, well proportioned, defined, broad and deep through.  Strong underjaw.  Awesome expression complimented by dark round well placed eyes and beautiful neat ears which she used well.  Muscular neck and strong shoulder with good angulation.  Straight well boned front and good feet, up on her pasterns.  Good forechest and width of chest, deep brisket and round rib.  Strong and level topline with tight tuck up into well covered muscular loins flowing into powerful shapely rear quarters producing clean driving movement.  Stood foursquare.  Pleasing outlines when viewed from any angle.  Top class bitch.  Handler got the best from her and her time in the ring was faultless today.  I was very happy and did not hesitate to award her the BITCH CHALLENGE and RESERVE BEST IN SHOW.

B/Br bitch with terrific headpiece.  Loved her expression and ring presence depicting 'look at me'.  Ticked a lot of boxes for her sheer breed type and overall attributes of which there were many.  Proportioned strong, deep through skull with defined stop and well set lovely dark round eyes and the neatest of ears set well to complete the appealing expression.  Strong underjaw.  Clean lipped.  Straight well boned front, strong well padded feed.  Broad chest and deep brisket with lovely spring of rib, following through to tight tuck up and muscular loins.  Terrific strength to hind quarters.  Powerful driving movement.  Overall a top class bitch put in the ring in top form.  Handled expertly and presented well.  More than happy to award this bitch BEST OPEN IN SHOW.
