Critique in full, "A well proportioned, well presented bitch. Appeared to be nicely balanced on the move and held her topline well. Head was a little finer but had a good eye and correct mouth."

Since being desexed in September 2017, Marlie has amassed well over 1000 Neuter points - fulfilling the requirements to now be recognised as an AUST NEUTER GRAND CHAMPION

Her amazing statistics include:
8 Best Neuter in Show

Fay contacted me way before this litter was even planned and kept in contact during the whole process from mating to whelping. She was interested in a show quality bitch but was not considering showing...at that stage! As I was considering a choice of the litter from the 2 pick girls, Fay was happy to take whichever bitch I did not retain. Happily she gave "Marlie" the most wonderful of homes and a friendship ensued where Fay and Terry would come to some shows and watch the proceedings. After Marley was desexed, Fay expressed an interest in competing in the Neuter class with her. Well, the rest is history. Due to Fay's injury, she was unable to pilot Marlie around the ring, so in stepped Terry. He watched how it was done, he learnt what was expected and he is now a confident handler in the ring. She is a lovely bitch with the most expressive of eye and a pleasing ear carriage; her head just commands attention! Her coat is black and thick and always in the best of health and overall is always so well presented. She is such a spoilt girl and enjoys going to the shows and glamping in the Motorhome. I am so proud of what Fay and Terry have achieved with this girl but most happy with the forever home that she is enjoying!!
