Boston DCS January 2010 - Judge Alan Talbot


1st Neath-Duggan Buffrey Gift Wrapped – Quality black spot, stood out in this class, well balanced, cat like feet, rounded bone, with a good spring of rib, good bend of stifle which gives her drive around the ring.

Joint Dalmatian Club Championship Show - Judge Cathy McCarthy


1st Neath-Duggans Buffrey Gift Wrapped JW b/w bitch who excels in conformation and movement. Perfect condition, right size and a real willingness to show her quality standing and on the move won her this strong class. To be picky would prefer cleaner decoration

Crufts - Judge Maggie Mulholland


Placed 2nd in Junior Bitch


BUFFREY GIFT WRAPPED JW (MRS S A NEATH-DUGGAN) Well made black of quality and style, plenty of substance, deep rib and level topline, very sound all through with a lovely wagging tail, but was not as mature as one.

BUBA Open Show - Judge Lou Garton


Placed 1st in Junior Dog or Bitch


1st – Neath-Duggan’s Buffrey Gift Wrapped. 15 month old B/S bitch. This young bitch is a real show-off. Of correct size for her age and again enough bone whilst still retaining femininity. Has a lovely expression and good dark eye. Correct size ears, used to her advantage. Shoulder placement was good, but would prefer more length of upper arm. Nice tight cat feet and nice to see correct angle of pasterns. Although I would like to see less ticking, her spotting was even and of good pigment and size. Hindquarters are good with excellent bend of stifle and hocks well let down. She is a very smart bitch on the move and moves true and settled with good tail carriage and maintaining a level topline. Sympathetically handled allowing her to show herself off to advantage. Easily won this class and won Reserve Best of breed as there is plenty of quality overall here to like.
