NWPBS - Helen Davenport-Willis' critique:

Sevastopulo’s Oldhobans Kheled Zaram. (Cid) 4 years, mature male of very different type but a very correct type of dog with a harmonious outline and lovely shape.  Masculine head, eyes could be darker, very good neck and front, pleasing middle piece, shapely hindquarters, very good croup and tail carriage. Shown in super coat and condition, on the move he is very sound although a little lethargic. Well deserved the reserve CC.  Excellent.  

Sevastopulo’s Oldholbans Haboob (Kate) 14 months, typey,  well grown youngster of correct proportions, attractive head and expression, very good length of neck and excellent angles to the forehand, lovely topline and hindquarters, croup and tail set.  Sound in movement, keeps her shape. Nice temperament. Very Good.

“WKC Manu - 1st  Puppy Dog Sevastopulo’s Bavaruki Formidable Oldholbans, raw baby of 10 months, basically so very well made with good layback of shoulder, decent hind angulation, strong level back, dark eye and good feet with well set and carried tail, the excellence of his conformation was indeed proved by his incredibly sound movement.” from  Jane Lilley.

Manu wins 1st Novice at LCGB CH Show (Oct'07) and then 1st Junior at Cheltenham DCS (Nov'07) and 1st Junior and BOB at Worcester & Malvern CS (Jan'08)
