Hi there,

Yes it is the one on Bank Hol Monday on 5th May.

Cayley's KC name is Wizinby Limelight at Elahrairah - if you see us say hi

Bye for now

Rachel

Stunning looking girly. Would agree about the heavy set ears. How tall is she?

She is 18" inches at the withers

What I know about Border Collies could be written on a pinhead lol But I think Fizz is beautiful

Thanks Gill. I always wonder what they mean in the standard by "dogs 21", bitches slightly smaller" How much is slightly LOL

Mmmmm it is a bit general but I think its actually more important to have a balanced dog rather than one that is bang on a stated height Fizz actually looks pretty average for size compared to the other bitches in her class in the ring.

I think that my Kali fits most of the standards as quoted here, but he lets himself down a bit in his markings and in having blue eyes, as far as showing is concerned. Doesn't matter, wouldn't change him for the world!

Quite agree Gill, I just find the size difference in the ring these days can be quite extreme from dog to dog and wondered what others intepreted the standard as.

That is the most important thing of all Dougie we each have the best dogs in the world living with us

I don`t do critiques as I`m useless at the right wording but I have to try for this girl [ I know what I like, I just don`t do the jargon ]

Lovely proportions, neat and compact, not too heavy of coat, obviously very alert, ears a tiny fraction on the large side but suit her well, they don`t detract at all, if anything they give her that extra `something` in overall expression, looks to have really nice movement as much as can be gleamed from a photo, a real eye catcher and as far as I`m concerned she`s what dreams are made of
