1st  Moore’s Ch/Ir/Int Ch Lempileijonan Musta Kuullaan. 

Not a great surprise to later find out that these two super dogs were brothers. Not much to choose between them. This one had a marginally stronger head and excellent topline. Bone was impressive with correct angulation, strong in pastern and feet. Loved the type which hit the balance between old fashioned and current. A well contested class but all things told, he well deserved his place today, especially on movement.

OD (3, 2) 1 Moore’s Ir Ch Lempileijonan Musta Kuullaan at Hillhaven (Imp), what a beautiful presentation of a Leonberger that stands here for me. Super example, with lovely size, and balance. Strong, but elegant head, medium brown eye and black mask. Good width in muzzle, balanced with his head and body. Ticks all the boxes for his size, shape, body, coat, bone, feet, movement, furnishings. Strong front, well let down legs standing on excellent tight round feet, plenty of bone, his hardy, body and muscle tone is a pure pleasure, but extra bonus for his coat quality, correct length and colouring. A strong neck and perfect level topline, a lovely croup, and well let down furnished tail. He has excellent reach and drive, on a steady ground covering pace, he stands balanced on all fours, and creates a perfect picture. Great nature and lovely temperament with others, a truly good Leonberger.To be critical, I would like to see more length of neck to give him that extra overall outline. A well worthy winner today, and taking his UK crown - well done. CC & BOB.

OD (5,2) A really top quality class of dogs. 1st Dog CC & BOB. Moore’s Ir Ch Lempileijonan Musta Kuullaan At Hillhaven Ju Ch.  This two year old took my breath away, presented in superb coat and body condition he looked everything you could want in this breed, height, coat ,body and super mover. Exceptional head with correct mask lovely eye set and very expressive ears, beautiful clear eyes and well shaped muzzle with excellent dentition. Lovely reach of neck to strong well shaped shoulders and well boned forelegs, strong pasterns and big well padded feet. Lovely deep chest and nice shaped ribs, excellent top line to good croup and well set tail carried correctly at all timed, very nicely well boned and angulated hind quarters, moved like a dream. Made the cut in the Group but should have been placed in my opinion.
