L2-HGA & HC CLEAR

Zanda arrived in New Zealand on the 19th Of December 2007 he fitted into our household and quickly settled into New Zealand life.

We started showing him in January of 2008 and by the 20th of September 2008 Zanda was a New Zealand Champion. While here he gained age class in show awards, group awards and 11 Reserve Dog Challenges.

Zanda returned to Australia in 2008 and has since gained his Australian title, including a Runner Up Best In Show at Spring Fair

While in Australia i am still allowed to show Zanda (thanks Karen) and most recently we were awarded Reserve Dog Challenge in Queensland under Griet Coetzer (Zeracious)
 
Please enjoy some of Zanda's photo's & critiques from New Zealand and Australia

Black brindle, having good head shape, neat ears, dark eye, good mouth, good width of muzzle but slightly longer in foreface than i would have liked. Powerful shoulders, short coupled, level top line and powerful backend. Moved well.

Very neat brindle. Good skull and cheek bumps but not quite the width in foreface as 1. Good bone, clean front but needs to drop in brisket which he will do with maturity. Enough spring of rib, level topline, moved O.K. Both he and No1 were presented in excellent condition.

Smart black brindle with white chest, beautifully presented in immaculate condition. Very clean head, well placed eye giving nice expression. Did not move quite as well behind and front rather tight.
