CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW

DOGS

 

Judge – Mrs Val Roach

 

Thank you to everyone for a lovely day, especially my two stewards.  I do feel the overall quality of the younger dogs was poor.  Temperaments were good.  My CC and RCC winners were very typical.  I wished I had two CCs as both are worthy of being champions.  I think the remark made by my friend, who hadn’t watched Welsh Springers for sometime was relevant, “whats happening to the rich red colour?”, she said, I agree, there are too many nearly English colour and a Welsh wouldn’t be a Welsh without its gorgeous colour.

 

MINOR PUPPY (1)

Summers’ HILLROBIN HAMLET A nice puppy full of himself at his first show.  Lovely head, well balanced, nice feet,  rare sight today.  Movement was erratic, but once he settles down to showing should do well.

 

PUPPY (1)

Reynolds’ KYLOWEN QUIN Needs time when I hope he will develop, would like to see more chiselling in the head.  Moved well but carries his tail on the high side.

 

JUNIOR (2)

1. Daltry & Brooks MAGREGOR MANOLETE AT BANADANCE  Nice head, nice slope of shoulders, good hind quarters which he really drove with when moving.

2. Tully’s HIGHCLARE TYCOON A nice headed dog that needs time to develop.  He needs to tighten in front.  He was carrying his tail on the high side, nice coat condition.

 

SPECIAL YEARLING (2)

1. Enderby’s TOBERMYN DAWN RAIDER Overall a well balanced dog. Lovely head with kind expression. Good bone, deep brisket, well sprung ribs, moved well. 

2.  Irvine’s BUSHWACKER CHILLI PEPPER OF BROOMWALK Not  as mature as 1st and lost out on movement.

 

MAIDEN (2)

1. Dean’s MENSTONIA MIST CHANCE OVER PASONDELA  A lovely dog in really hard condition.  A real dual purpose dog with a lovely head and really moves with drive from strong muscular quarters.

2.  Kerr’s JULITA RADLEY Another nice headed dog with a wonderful temperament, needs to settle on the move.

GRADUATE (4)

1.  Masson’s PEAKDALE IESTYN AP DAFYDD MANMOEL Compact dog, I would like a better head with more chiselling below the eyes. Won over 2nd on movement.

2.  Evans’ BWGAN LLWYD Nice masculine head good neck and shoulders. Needs to settle on the move.  Big enough.

3.  Irvine’s BUSHWACKER CHILLI PEPPER OF BROOMWALK

 

POST GRADUATE (8)

1.  Davis’ JULITA RANGER  One I have always liked froM the ringside.  Didn’t change my mind having gone over him.  Deep brisket with well sprung ribs. Well balanced, moved well.  Just needs time.

2.  Riley’s RAVENSWORTH ARMADA Another nice dog, nice head, good feet and good hind quarters.  Lost out on front movement. I felt his handler could make more of him.

MID LIMIT (4)1 abs

1.  Knox’ PARKMIST MASTER PLAN  Very happy active mover with well developed hind quarters which he used. Nice masculine head well balanced.

3.  Masson’s COEDYBRAIN GERAINT OF MANMOEL

 

LIMIT (10) 3 abs

1.  Hylton’s MELLADOMINA MUST BE SO A really typical welsh with correct top line.  By far the best mover in the class. Hocks well let down, good ribs, lovely head.  Just wished I had two CCs it was so close. I am sure he will get his third, deserves to be a champion RCC.

2.  Tew’s PAMICKS SIGN OF THE TIMES Another nice dog, slightly bigger, in wonderful coat and condition with good head and very well balanced.

3.  Wakeman’s SHERDRE ECHO POINT.

1.  Knowles’ SU(u)CH MENSTONIA MARCEL So typical of this kennel. Lovely Welsh, so well balanced with deep brisket, well sprung ribs, lovely head with that melting expression.  Good hind quarters, hocks well let down.  In superb coat and condition, was delighted to hear this was his 3rd CC.

2.  Barnes SH CH BARHI CROUCHING TIGER a worthy Ch, slightly bigger but well proportioned in lovely condition.
