SMOKIN JOE
"SMOKEY" |
Smokey was appropriately given his name by our son, because of his colour as he is a blue/white, he is full of life & very cheeky. Smokey has great angulation, nice bone and a lovely coat, he also has very nice ground covering movement, as pictured below. Smokey has attended his first few shows where he has made a very impressive start to his show career he has won many Classes in Group in very strong competition, however Smokey's biggest win to date was in Canberra at the prestigious 2nd National Border Collie show, where he won Best Puppy in Show, there was an entrant of 30 pups from all over Australia, the judge was breed specialist Mr Ross Green (Fayken Kennels, UK) his critique on Smokey can be read below. Please note: this critique remains unaltered and in full. 1st - Sashdan Smokin Joe - Sashdan Kennels - Super
blue/white dog of quality. He really is such a lovely picture in profile
with super outline from back of skull through neck, withers, back, croup
to tip of tail. I liked his head properties, nice kind and well placed
eyes, ok ears, good skull and muzzle proportions correctly tapering to
nose. Shoulder and upper arm were both good, really super top-line and
croup with good angulation behind. Was sound out and back and had an easy
and efficient side gait when moved at the correct pace. A very promising
youngster who if he continues to mature will surely trouble the very best
in the future. In the class challenge I had no doubt in awarding him Best
Puppy in Show over the bitch who could not match his shoulder and upper
arm. .........Mr Ross Green (Fayken Border Collies,
