15TH BREED CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW

Held on 17th October 2012.

Dogs

The usual family atmosphere of a Breed Club Show.  Hospitality and welcome was much appreciated.  Quality in most of the dogs was pleasing and made tidy line-ups, which made my task very enjoyable.

MINOR PUPPY DOG 2(1abs)                                                                                              
1. Dias Ballantyne’s REDFRITH HOT FUDGE. Superb profile, well coated, fairly sound with a happy dispostition.  A good future prospect.

PUPPY DOG 6(1abs)                                                                                                                
1. Bott’s FERNDEL PORTHOS. Beautiful dog, absolutely typical of his breeders productions, although not quite mature yet.  His proportions are OK, good head, neckline, rib cage, short loin, good hind angulation and bags of confidence.  At this age you can see what you are getting and given time will make the grade.                                                                              
2. Harrisons’ GLENBROWS TIMELORD.  Unlucky to meet winner today.  He is good enough to enjoy lots of wins, his profile and outline are his best attributes and his sound movement front and rear.                                                                                                                            
3. Buckwell’s KILLENA SONG FOR GUY.

JUNIOR DOG 4(1abs)                                                                                                                     
1. Backhouse’s AINDREA LOTOFUNWIOUTLAFIN.  Good masculine head, very good reach of neck, well coupled body, plenty of bone.  He knows he is class and it shows.  Another prospect for the future.                                                                                                               
2. Cocking & Barnaby’s BUSHWACKER THRILLER.  In many ways similar to winner, well presented, perhaps not as confident.                                                                                       
3. Masters’  MURSHTAIL FORTISSIMO

SPECIAL YEARLING DOG  3                                                                                                 
1. Backhouse’ AINDREA LOTOFUNWIOUTLAFIN                                                                                     
2. Gills’ BRENROS TAKE ME RIGHT ROUND. Well bodied, compact, strode around with good drive, excellent temperament, perhaps more stop would enhance his expression.          
3. Masters’ MURSHTAIL FORTISSIMO.

MAIDEN DOG 5 (3abs)                                                                                                                 
1. Buckwell’s KILLENA EVERLASTING LOVE. Did OK. Enjoyed his task but did no more than necessary, more experience and possibly ringcraft would help.                                                    
2. Masters’ MURSHTAIL FORTISSIMO Again more experience required.

NOVICE DOG 4(2abs)                                                                                                                         
1. Harrisons’ GLENBROWS TIMELORD                                                                                            
2. King's KILLENA EVERLASTING LOVE

GRADUATE DOG 3                                                                                                                             
1. Backhouse’ AINDREA LOTOFUNWIOUTLAFIN                                                                          
2. Leary & Geoghan’s HIGHCLARE JUST SO FOR FENFLEET. More mature than first, good body properties, perhaps tail a bit highish, otherwise better than average.                                  
3. Evans’ COEDYBRAIN RYAN

POST GRADUATE DOG 8(1abs)                                                                                                               
1. Enderby’s TOBERMYN DAWN RAIDER. Short coupled with nice width of ribs, masculine head, neat feet on well boned front and and good rear angulation.                                                   
2. Leary & Geoghans’s HIGHCLARE JUST SO FOR FENFLEET                                                 
3. Thomas’ BOWDONIA SPECIAL EFFECTS

MID LIMIT DOG 2                                                                                                                                    
1. Tully’s HIGHCLARE TYCOON. 3 years young, nicely proportioned, well presented to show off his good outline. Happy nature, excellent movement, eager to please. Res CC

LIMIT DOG 9(1abs)                                                                                                                                 
1. Irvine’s BUSHWACKER CHILLI PEPPER OF BROOMWALK.  A superb example of our breed.  I liked everything about him, his outgoing personality, he is not a flash harry, but you cannot overlook him.  He is well put together and I predict a good future.                                        
2. Smith’s AMBLELIGHT MERCURY.  Another typical specimen, not a prima dona but he will challenge for honours in his own workmanlike way.  Dare I say, he is a mans dog.            
3. Thomas’ BOWDONIA SPECIAL EFFECTS.

OPEN DOG 7(3abs)                                                                                                                                
1. Worth’s SH CH SHANDWICK KRISTOFFER AT SARABANDE .  A model of presentation, exceedingly sound in moving, a full well groomed coat.  He strode around the ring with authority.  My details of the finer points e.g. expression, bone, feet etc escape my memory, such was my admiration of a worthy champion. CC.                                                                      
2. Walton & Coffin’s AM CH COLECREEK HAWKEYE AT HILLPARK. Just about maturity, he goes well and is nice to watch.  He does everything right, at his own pace, but he and the remainder of the class had no chance of challenging the winner.                                                   
3. Tew’s PAMICKS SIGN OF THE TIMES (One of my past favourites)

VETERAN DOG 6                                                                                                                                       
1. Barnes’ SH CH BARHI CROUCHING TIGER. Typical for his 10 years, maybe more like 8 years, he has good looks and all his faculties.  Keep on pal.                                                        
2. Tubbs’ PARKMIST MASTER DANCER FOR ALSUTU. More compact than first, just as fit.      
3. Ordish’s GOLDSPRINGS OSPREY

SPECIAL BEGINNERS DOG 2                                                                                                         
1. Johnstone’s KAZVAL FILATELIST FOR GILPETA. Winner the more finished article and he did not let owner down. Bred in the royal purple. Just a wee bit harder now.                           
2. Batey’s AMBLELIGHT CENTAURI

SPECIAL WORKING DOG no entries

GOOD CITIZENS DOG SCHEME 2                                                                                                     
1. Tubb’s PARKMIST MASTER DANCER FOR ALSUTU.                                                                        
2. Wren’s GWYMARREN WINTER STORM                                                                                        
Both good examples of their breed.

Bitches

Firstly I would like to thank the members who voted for me and the committee for their kind invitation to judge. Grateful thanks to my efficient stewards Ruth  and Pam who ensured everything ran smoothly. As always I found the show friendly and well organised.

 

Minor puppy bitch (2 . 0)

1) Starkey’s Redfrith You Know Me at Mynthurst. 6 month old showing lots of promise. Sweetest of heads with good eye. Lovely bone and substance, super neck and shoulder, correct topline and well turned quarters. Moved well for such a youngster.

2) Frost’s Bodlon Star Attraction by Bushwacker. Smaller in type to one but found her slightly longer cast. Good bone and substance, well laid neck and shoulder, good quarters and moved well. At this stage I just preferred the coupling and topline of my winner.

 

Puppy bitch (3 . 1)

1) Harrison and Hartley’s Glenbrows Tribute To Weslave

An outstanding 10 month old puppy. Sweet head with correct eye and ear set, best of neck and shoulder, correct topline, good strong quarters with short hocks. Strong deep body and such a lovely outline, presented in lovely coat and body condition. I could just not resist her and am sure she will go on to greater things. Delighted to award her the RCC and BPIS.

2) Walton and Coffin’s Hillpark Sparkling Silver

Pretty bitch of a smaller mould, sweet head and expression, correct topline, a shade longer  cast than one, moved OK.

 

Junior bitch (9 . 2)

1) Brown’s Glenbrows paper Dawn at Graygees

16 month old bitch. Sweet head but would prefer a shade more stop to complete. Good in neck and shoulder, excellent legs and feet and correct substance, well ribbed with correct quarters. Shown in super coat and condition, moved well.

2) Backhouse’s Aindrea Ain’t Misbehavin

Super headed bitch of good breed type with lovely eye and expression, correct neck / shoulder placement. Strong quarters moved well. Nicely handled, just needs a shade more confidence.

Sp Yearling bitch (4 . 2)

1) Backhouse’s Aindrea Ain’t Misbehavin

Three year old bitch of excellent breed type as I would expect from this kennel. Sweet well balanced head, excellent neck and shoulder placement, good legs and feet with lovely bone and substance. Strong quarters with short strong hocks giving excellent rear movement. Found her a shade light in coat and condition when it came to top honours today.

2) Leary’s Haselmount Heulwen

3) Harrison’s Glenbrows Please Please Me

 

Limit bitch (7 . 0)

She is a wonderful example of our breed. Loved her today.

Brace (4)

1st Caldwell’s – A very well matched pair both standing and moving. I really enjoyed judging them and had no hesitation in putting them 1st.
2nd Barnes’ – Another nice pair, close to one, but one of this pair looked less happy. I found out afterwards he had just been in another class. Very nice pair.
3rd Carr’s.
4th Frost’s.

1st Caldwell’s- Cerysan Purely By Chance. 4 year old bitch with a pleasing head and eye, nicely put together, good bone and neat feet, moved with style.
