PD, 1st Niavana Quite Simply Tintigny *** 8 month puppy dog of excellent type. Really liked this young man, he took my eye as soon as he came into the ring. Excellent overall square body with lovely flowing lines both from his withers to his tailset and his underline. Excellent head of good proportions and length of muzzle. Good dark eye of excellent shape and obliquely set. Small triangular ears which are well set and used constantly. Correct dentition with scissor bite. Lovely reach of neck, good height at the withers. His depth of chest is already developing well and he stood very well with good angulations front and rear. He was a little loose on the move but covered the ground well. He was very well presented, has a super temperament and  I think would have shown all day.
