The busy round of Summer Championship shows has seen more amazing success for Jenny & David’s Belatarr Boys.

The Three Counties Championship was judged by Becky Johnson and saw a memorable 1-2 with Kodi (Sh Ch Belatarr Kodiak) winning his 4th CC of the year (his 7th in total):

“Excellent overall balance. Head of good dimensions with good breadth of skull and moderate stop. Well-muscled neck leading seamlessly into well-laid shoulders. Chest of good depth with elbows well placed. Level topline. Ribs carried well back. Well-muscled hindquarters with stifles moderately angulated. Coat of excellent texture. Ground covering movement with good drive from the rear. CC”

just ahead of Luka (Belatarr Jupiter) who was awarded the Reserve CC:

“I like this dog very much indeed and he was so close up for top honours today. Well balanced all through. Scores in his head and forehand construction. Deep in chest and long in ribcage. Strong, well-muscled hindquarters with moderately bent stifles. Excellent coat texture. Moved out really well covering the ground on a good length of stride. I just wish he was half a size smaller which was the deciding factor. RCC”

Just 7 days later Kodi picked up his 8th CC at the Border Union Championship under breed expect Terry Pearson:

 “What a stallion of a dog this is, everything about him shouts HWV male from his size, coat and conformation. He has the most masculine of heads, broad over skull, correct skull to muzzle ratio, broad nose, the most kind expression. Arched muscular neck, enough layback of shoulder. Body well proportioned, topline level. Chest deep, hindquarters muscular with decent bend of stifle. Tight oval feet. Has the most glorious double coat, just enough facial furnishing to complete the picture. His movement is without doubt, ground covering. “

His 9th CC was not long in following, being awarded by Pam Blay at the Paignton Championship on 3rd August:

“No wonder he appealed, I have admired this affix for years & always done it well! He is a nice type who moved well to cover the ground with ease yet determination on well-boned legs & feet, he is balanced & quality with enough coat which has the correct texture & well presented, good strong topline with a well set & carried tail, well-muscled hindquarters, he is masculine with a good head & expression with a correct skull & ear set, lovely neck & shoulders, showed to advantage to take the CC.”

…and Luka then scored another Reserve CC on 17th August under Pat Butler-Holley.
