Silver's Critiques Banwen - 3 May ‘08 BP, the delightful, super quality whippet, Koppelwell Kurious Kactus, at just over 6 months was completely un-phased by the day, nothing curious about this one, shapely, elegant & balanced outline of good proportions & covering ground when stacked, most feminine of head, lovely dark oval eyes, moved as sound as a bell.

MPB-1st, N-1st, BPIS National Dog Show CH - 11 May ‘08 I realise having only one entry in OB & that being a minor puppy caused quite a stir, but on checking the KC rules & regs etc F (1) 3.61 21 judges & judging n. An award may be withheld if in the opinion of the judge there is a lack of sufficient merit. I obviously thought she had sufficient merit to award a first & Stud Book number. She was shortlisted in a super MP class & 5th Novice giving age away all round. On getting home I read that only two weeks previously she had gone BPIS under two breed specialists at a club ch show. Taunton & DCA - 29 May ‘08 A beautiful brindle/white bitch puppy which is most certainly one for the future and high honours.
