DEVERN FIRST PRIME



(Eye clear)    MDR1   + / -

 In 2008 a breeder decided to have a litter of puppies out of a bitch I admired very much.   She was the tri-colour Devern Fate A Compli had by this time
won Best Puppy Crufts 2006,  the RCC at Crufts 2008, and two Challenge Certificates.

The Sire was Norfield Soul Mate,  Best Puppy Crufts 2005.    4 RCC's  including Crufts 2008.  

Eventually a trip to Norfolk was in order and Jack came home!

 Jack is a delight to own and has wonderful movement.  After a long break to mature Jack has now returned to the showring, taking second in a good Limit Dog class at Leeds

well muscled body and rear end, moves to please, won on the overall balance,
would like ears a little more settled but head proportions attract.

he moves well on strong rear quarters, liked the body and shape, not quite the attitude of

SKC (May) 2009  Mrs R Gibson Pelgarth

  Puppy:  (5)    2 French’s Devern First Prime, sable dog of 10 months, was my winner of this class as he walked into the ring,
unfortunately still very raw & needs to mature a lot, as one would expect of a 10 month male. Lovely balanced head but his stop needs to clear,
good length of neck, well arched, excellent length of body & ribbing, good angulation. Not quite together on the move.
Considered him for RCC but he is not ready yet, I am sure his time will come;


 

Scottish Breeds 2009   V Salt
PD & JD (2) 1 French’s Devern First Prime, s/w in nice condition, well balanced head & good dark eye, ears well used, good body shape, moved well;
