CRUFTS 2020

overdone, flat skull with no extra wrinkle,
correct muzzle, broad jaws, the breed’s true
decisive expression, super neck, broad loins,
outstanding mover with enormous presence
and class, experiencedly handled with authority
and charm. Great breed ambassador.
3 the Tibetan Mastiff, Kashin’s Petro-Prestige
Dzhiya, outstanding big black & tan Do Khyi
bitch, substantial and authoritative, at the
same time truely feminine, with charismatic
expression and old Tibetan myth, none of
the horrendous mongrel features we are
often confronted with today, in great condition
where ever in the world you are meeting her,
she excells in type, standing and moving,
not the shortest in the loins, though, but
so firmly put together, keeping the topline
standing and moving, with correct coat (quality
before quantity) and wonderful tail-carriage.
Respectfully handled with grace and expertise.
Had been so pleased to have a quality Tibetan
Mastiff in my ring - though non-British, but
still highlighting the unique tradition Britain is
privileged to have (and successfully to defend
over the years!) in this fantastic non-Chinese
Tibetan breed.
4 the Dobermann, Everley’s Ch Manzart
Vogue JW ShCM, what a wonderful world-
class Dobermann girl of absolute grace,
combined with true Dobermann substance,
fabulous neck and shoulder, true chest,
clean front and hindquarters, smart & keen &
gentle expression, so immaculately presented
standing and moving. This girl should
campaign our unique German breed at home
in order to re-gain the attention and admiration
it deserves.
Meeting your dogs in the Working Group ring
at Crufts 2020 was a great pleasure, indeed.
