Conformation
Clark - Winner's Dog/Best of Winner's for his Championship at the Northeastern Maryland KC Show on July 4, 2008
Conformationally, Clark is well balanced and has lots of bone. He has a beautiful head, nice length of neck, and low set and long ears. His eyes are already a nice shade and they should continue to darken some. His jacket has the proper crisp curls. Clark has beautiful movement, good structure, and good proportions. He is really starting to fill out and get the nice rib spring although that will continue to come as he is still a young lad. He is 23 3/4 inches high at the shoulders.
I showed Clark between the ages of 6-8 months and he earned 2 breed points. Then gave him some time off to mature and to work on our obedience, agility, and field training. I then brought him back out to show at 20 months of age. He finished his championship on Friday, July 4, 2008 by going Winner's Dog/Best of Winners for a 4 point major. Clark was invited to the 2008 Eukanuba Championships in Long Beach, California both for finishing out of the bred-by class and for being ranked in the top 25 IWS for 2008.
