1st Riddell Primo Bell ‘Uomo 6 month old Tri-Colour very raw need time to develop head nice muzzle good head planes, eye dark and nice almond shape. Ears well placed but at times were pricked. Nice bone straight front, neat feet. Chest developing was carring a bit to much weight but for a puppy it will hopefully start to come off. Lovely coat colour pigment. Movement was a bit erratic at times but will hopefully settle with age.
