She looks lovely, until you clarified her breed I wondered if she was a wire haired pointer.
Had one of those - no resemblance even at 10 weeks, and very few black and whites in that breed - mostly liver and white.  They also have their facial hair quite early.

Ha ha, that's what my kids said too  :-[  But I DID check her over - teeth and jaw correct, head planes parallel, muzzle to skull ratio correct, ear placement, shoulder layback, upper arm length, length of loin, depth of bone, bend of stifle, slope of croup  :huff:

I'm sure you were very thorough in your assessment - given you want her for showing and know what you're judging you'd not want to be embarrassed to take her out..  but I did sense a slight bias towards hoping for the positive outcome and I'm very pleased you got it.

As for me, lacking all conformational knowledge of the breed requirements, I just think she's cute and will look forward to judging her solely on the criteria of cuddleability whenever I am lucky enough to meet her..  I also think she'll pass with flying colours against my very high standards ;) but if there is a point in her education where puppycuddling would be counterproductive to her manners, best get me in there first or teach her a cuddle command cos I know I won't be able to help myself :)

Cuddleability was the prime criteria. :excited:

Beautiful dog! I fell in love with these at Crufts! I like that the colour names are logical!

We may have passed each other then - been there almost every year since they came into the UK in 1980's; Judged them in 2007 - what year were you there?
