Judge’s Critiques…

“Edwinstowe Open Show 2010 (Alaskan Malamute Post Graduate) – Colin Langham
What a cracking 19 month old black and white boy. Has excellent proportions which present a picture of power and balance. Strong well-boned and has a lovely deep chest. Beautiful head leading to a well-arched neck. Powered round the ring on good feet too! Was in very good coat and in a beautiful condition. Pity he didn’t have more competition but certainly could not deny him the BOB & WG1.”

Coat was in excellent condition and moved with great drive. BOB and was pleased to see him go on to do well in the group.”
