BIS was awarded to a male from Waka I Class and BOS was also from female Waka I Class.
In spite of several shibas having out of shape condition, missing tooth, light color, over or under size etc., the fact that these young shibas received the top position indicates promising future of shibas in Sweden.
Both BIS and BOS shibas should do very well even in Nippo shows in Japan.

Following are a brief critique of the winners of each class;

First Male Class, (Saikousho): In spite of very young age, he was full of kogata type (shiba type) expression.

Second Male Class, (Souken class): Condition of the dog was not good but had excellent facial expression and body type. Steps were quick and light.

Third Male Class, (Seiken class): Overall balance was good but needed more chest. Good face and inner strength.
Fourth Male Class, (Waka II class): Good quality coat with soboku expression. Rear legs need more angulations.

First Female Class, (Waka I class): This bitch showed fine feminine expression and good red color. Whitening of face is bit early at this young age.

Second Female Class, (Souken class): Over all feminine expression was attractive. Whitening at chest and face may be too early.

Third Female Class, (Seiken class): Good coat quality and facial expression. Need to get used to teeth check. She was at the top of the limit of the standard.
