1st Undergraduate Dog -NUCKY OF MCBIRDY LUXJCH BENELUX JW
MRS D, MR J, MRS A & MR W MILLIGAN-BOTT, BOTT & LAUWERS
This quality dog has style and is very true to type. In profile he was outstanding. He has a lovely balanced head with dark eye. Good arch to neck into well laid shoulder. His body is deep in brisket with good spring of rib. Straight front with correct bone, feet and pastern. Well angulated both fore and aft with well defined turn of stifle. Short and straight from hock to heel. Well set on tail. On the move his stride was effortless, using his tail and keeping his topline. Shown in excellent coat and hard condition. This boy to me was a serious contender for the top honours but sadly he was unsound in the challenge and could not be considered. Such a shame when this happens but hopefully he will recover for another day.

Super critiques of our boys by judge Fauvrelle Lynda from National Gundog last week .
Yearling Dog
1st Milligan-Bott, Bott & Lauwers Nucky Of McBirdy Lux JCh BE/NE/Lux JW
The flair of this young lad caught my eye. A beautiful outline, classic head structure with soft dark eye and lovely Irish expression. Excellent sternum with good width and depth of chest and well sprung rib. Lovely reach and strength of neck set into good shoulder lay, gently sloping topline, good width of loin and rearquarters with right length of coupling, no coarseness, all style. In excellent coat and condition. Moved out with panache. Among my considerations for RCC.
Open Dog
1st Milligan-Bott, Bott & Lauwers Int/Multi Ch Paris Match Thendara JW
He filled my eye and didn’t disappoint. Presented in top condition, excels in outline, long lean head with raised stop and brow, soft dark eye with mischievous expression, chiselled foreface, dark nose, long low set ears. Good bone, shoulder placement and rear angulation, every part fitting smoothly into the next from his muscular arched neck settling cleanly into his shoulders, flowing topline, tail set on at correct level. All this enabling him to flow so freely around the ring. He possesses a certain pizzazz. Awarded him Best Puppy in 2013 and so pleased to see he is fulfilling the promise he showed then. More than happy to award him the CC today and delighted to see him go BOB under referee Frank Kane.
