Critique
A lovely entry awaited me , it is three years since I last judged so this was the first time I had been over the majority of the entry .In the past I have criticised the poor shelly bodies of the exhibits lacking the desired cobbyness referred in the breed standard .None of that today I found the breed to be much more uniform with very few lacking body.
Sadly hare feet seem to be a thing of the past with only a few exceptions
My only real criticism would be back movement –please please watch it and be aware –several otherwise lovely exhibits lost been placed due to really poor back movement.A Japanese Chin is supposed to display good reach and elevation when moving and no weakness in hind movement .This can only be achieved when both the hindquarters have a good turn of stifle and are straight when viewed from behind .Correct front movement is only achieved when a dog is compactly built with enough width of chest.Lack of width results in the the appearance that both limbs are coming from the same source .A chin that flows around the ring with stylish movement is a joy to behold –as the introductory paragraph to any breed standard states ’absolute soundness is essential ‘
It is my opinion that the breed is in a very healthy position with lots of exciting youngsters coming up and quite a few of exhitbits in higher classes am sure are of sufficient quality to gain their titles .In several classes I really was splitting hairs and it literally was ‘on the day ‘
