Sengalas Indiana Jones

Huntingdon CS Open show was the first show that Indy had attended in 5 months due to the fact that we had been rather busy with Eva and her lovely litter. Thankfully, Indy had not forgotten the ropes and we were delighted when he won 1st AVNSC Junior plus Best AVNSC he then went on to win Pastoral Group 2 under All Rounder Stella Clark who gave Indy this very nice critique.
"Stunning young dog who impressed with his overall balance and movement, head and expression to standard, showing flat skull, good ear placement, well filled muzzle and good under jaw, neck is strong and set into good layback of shoulder, excellent front, good depth of chest showing plenty of heart and lung room, well sprung ribs and correct length to height ratio, good turn of stifle and strong hocks enabled him to give good ground cover, moving on strong well padded feet, coat of correct texture, beautifully presented, should have a bright future."
