3rd (no38) Mr W & Mrs A Lewis’s “Nerralee Hot Gossip” A little heavy overall for active cattle dog
Overall the blues speckle were better colour. Some of the red speckle were not of a good speckle. A couple of heads & jaws were weaker than I was looking for, as were a couple of the bites not being true scissor. Some feet were not round & tight as a working dog needs & quite a few toplines were not level but were down at shoulder & ran up to tail. I enjoyed my winners as I felt that they were type showed that they could work well
