"The first place tri-color dog had wonderful balance of head to body 

and presented an elegant, pleasing picture with his nice proportions and 

elegant carriage.  He had nice planes of head, good finish and nice ears 

and expression.  He possessed good angulation and traveled smoothly...

Real quality, he was pulled out in winners."  Judge Thomas Coen
