Some of Mia's critiques....

WELKS Championship Show. April 2008.

I would have loved to have taken this beautiful bitch home, so beautifully balanced through out, gorgeous head, excellent reach of neck, superb layback of shoulder,& excellent upper arm angulation, good deep mature body, super bend of stifles, just the right amount of bone with short neat hocks, excellent topline with perfect tailset & carriage which she kept on the move, shown and presented to perfection, made a beautifully balanced picture both standing and moving, CC. Judge was Mrs Pauline Bevis (Starlance).

Yorkshire Golden Retriever Club Championship Show April 2008.

What a stunning bitch, she is so well balanced, in tip-top coat and condition, correct angulations, deep short coupled body, level topline & tailset, correct bone & feet, well let down straight hocks, her lovely construction is so evident on the move as she flows round the ring with such ease, CC & BIS. Judge was Mrs Sue Towers (Alibren).

Ulster GRC Championship show April 2008.

I have admired this superb bitch from the ringside since she was a puppy, very pleased to have the opportunity to go over her, not a large bitch but everything in proportion & looks right together giving a very well balanced picture, well shaped feminine head, very well constructed throughout showing lovely angles as well as a strong topline, excellent outline without exaggeration, her golden coat was gleaming & well presented, owner gets the best from her with her quiet handling, CC & BIS. Mrs Viv Jones (Ninell)

South Western GRC Championship show March 2007

Headed a class of quality ladies & for me just typifies the standard, every part of her just fits so well together, pretty head, good length of neck into well made front assembly, strong level topline & tailset, good bend of stifle & width of second thigh, moves effortlessly around the ring while maintaining good head carriage, coming into full golden coat, needing more tummy feathering to complete the picture. Excellent presentation with the minimum of fuss. CC her 3rd. Mrs Pat Cooper (Goldsmill)

Eastern Counties GRC Championship show. October 2006.

If you have just read the critique of the reserve CC winner then you will be thinking how can she be better than that, well as they say every dog has their day and this was hers. She seemed to realise she had to pull out all the stops to take top spot & with the help of her expert handler she did just that. sweet feminine head, in tip-top condition, she is so lovely from any angle, her mid gold coat with its mirror finish just looked stunning, her flowing lines, excellent angulation, super straight forearm & the neatest of feet, strong quarters with super bend of stifle all combined with excellent carriage took her around the ring with that style and attitude that says, beat that! CC & BIS. Mrs Lynne Hennessy (Ritzilyn)

Three Counties Championship Show. June 2006

Took my eye as soon as she came into the ring, one I have long admired coming up through the ranks & now beginning to fulfil her potential, lovely head & expression, good reach of neck into well laid shoulders, everything about her just flowed, level topline, short coupled with superb bend of stifle, moved with plenty of drive from strong quarters, did not disappoint, she was my ideal of what the standard should be & I wished she were mine, beautifully presented and quietly handled, no hesitation in awarding top honours amid tough competition.1st CC. Mrs Freda Garget (Garvin)

Eastern Counties GRC Open Show. March 2005

Fabulous bitch in rich golden coat & hard condition, has all the essentials: type, construction, quality, personality, femininity, moved with drive & style sure she will be up for top honours Best In Show. Mr Gordon Kipps (Wheatcroft).

Paignton Championship Show. July 2004

Beautifully balanced mid gold bitch, very well shown to great advantage, in excellent coat and condition, not overdone in any way, so full of quality and completely fills the eye, balanced feminine head and kind expression, length of neck in proportion to her body length, straight front, well laid back shoulders, well sprung ribs, short coupled, good rear angulation, moved with drive, hope her qualities bring her future success. Mr Peter Carey (Carlafield)
