Judges critique by Samoyed Specialist, Peter Bailey, UK:
"Samoyeds, I had classics on show in this breed. The BOB & Dog CC winner was one of the best I have judged world wide in this fine breed, he was Grand Champion Zaminka Flashlight, a dog with the perfect head giving me that laughing cavalier expression, his eyes are almond shape, dark brown, he has very good pigmentation on nose and lips, ears are well set and used to advantage. Legs and feet: front and rear construction are perfect, he has the correct coupled body shape, perfect loin, tail is long and profuse, carried to perfection. He moved with style and elegance - a wonderful example of this lovely breed, thank you for giving me the privilege to judge him".
