WKC Critiques

GB 1 Stanley’s Blanik Liszka – 19mths – Very promising youngster who just now needs to finish. Standing would prefer her slightly more compact, but has size, shape and type. Strong topline and croup. Well angulated front and rear. Feet could be better. Alert balanced head, combined with pleasing ear and eye. Needs to tighten going away otherwise a well balanced free gait with good forward reach

2 Stanley’s Blanik Jeevana – 5yrs. So much to like but rather enjoying herself on the move and tended to loose co-ordination but she is sound always. However she has a correct build, type and shape, giving a clean balanced profile. Has a lovely head and expression. In good order for weight, coat and muscle

- GD Good class 1 Swan and Hughes Blanik Lancelot – 20mths – Maturing into a handsome lad with so much to like, loved his profile, overall shape and proportions. Is very well made all through, good reach and carriage of neck. Muzzle to skull good, used his ears well but would like a slightly higher set. Alert dark almond eyes. Flowing balanced side gait, sound coming and going

PGB 1 Smith’s Blanik Kamari – 2yrs - Same sire as Liszka and sister to the PGD– another quality exhibit from this breeder. Standing was lovely for size, type and shape. Compact with good length of leg, angulation front and rear. Strong in topline. Pleasing bone and feet. Alert with proportioned and balanced head, correct ear and eye. Needs to be more consistent and settle on the move, however did display a sound side gait when she got going

2 Stanley’s Blanik Kyriacos – 2yrs – Pushed 1 hard. In stance would prefer him slightly more compact. However is well made, length of leg with good strength in rear quarters. Has a lovely head and expression, for me eyes could be slightly dark. Sound on the move, controlled with good drive in rear covering good ground.
