It was an honour to be invited to judge at the 80Th anniversary show of my local club. I thoroughly enjoyed my day and had some lovely dogs to assess. Thanks to my very competent ring steward and to the sporting exhibitors for their bumper entry. I was pleased with all of the exhibits, who were presented in a clean, tidy condition, there were no dirty teeth, though there were a couple of questionable bites. Temperaments were very good, though a couple objected to the very noisy hall. Dog CC Stargang Plutonium Dog RCC Dereheath Shaken Not Stirred Best Puppy Dog BPIB Bimini Song Sung Blue Bitch CC BOB Ch Drakesleat Too Gud To Be True Bitch RCC Stargang Sapphire and Steel Best Puppy Bitch Rozelle Rosalie at Janacop Best Veteran in Breed Ch Helydon Laird Loki Veteran Dog 2(1) 1 Kirkwood Emery Ch Helydon Laird Loki A very smart , well balanced 7 yo dog with good head, and reach of neck running into correct shoulder placement Well ribbed back with a short loin and strong, powerful hind quarters. He moved well keeping a level topline and I was delighted to see him awarded reserve best veteran in show Minor Puppy Dog 1 1Kay Katian The Suncaller Red,8 month old puppy at his first show, Nicely made all through, with good head , strong hindquarters, and moving with drive, just a slightly softer coat at the moment. Puppy Dog 2 (1) 1 Jones Bimini Song Sung Blue Very nice puppy, upset by the noisy hall, but soon settled down. Lovely head and tight eye, good length of neck and excellent front assembly, long ribbing, strong hindquarters and moved well. Correct harsh jacket finished the picture. One to watch for the future BPD and BPIB Junior Dog 2 1 Corominas Almarxils Diego For Ruichango just out of puppy and another one to watch for the future. Very smart boy with correct coat, good head and expression, and powerful hind movement. He kept his outline at all times and moved with drive. I considered him for higher honours, but feel that he still needs to mature a little more 2 Corner Carcvorn Raphael’s Racer Another youngster just out of the puppy class and going through his teenage stage. Good head, long neck and length of ribbing, just slightly narrower than my winner. Post Graduate Dog 4 (1) 1 Howells Fallowmill Time Traveller JW Well constructed dog with good head, long neck, and excellent ribbing, Correct angles fore and aft and moving well. Would have preferred a more prominent prosternum. 2 Tomsett Dajean’s Red Sun Lots to like about this red boy Not as settled on the table which I forgave as he is nicely constructed and moves well, just slightly shorter ribbing than 1. 3 James Jamesfair One Moment in Thyme Limit Dog 7 (3) 1 Gilkes Storton & Storton Dereheath Shaken Not Stirred well balanced dog, of good type. Good head, length of neck, prominent prosternum and long ribbing. His front and hind angulation were good and he moved freely and in harmony with his handler.Seriously considered him for the CC, his time will come. RCC 2 Kent Barratini Du Beke at Lokmadi Another nice dog, of good breed type, good head, and well laid back shoulders, long ribbing and well angulated hind quarters. I just preferred the freer movement of my winner 3 Tomsett Dajean Surely a Star Open Dog 6 (2) 1 Blackburn Stargang Plutonium well boned and strongly constructed dog of excellent type. He has a good head and expression, good shoulders long well sprung ribbing, correct harsh coat and powerful hindquarters he moved with drive keeping a good outline. CC 2 Dance Ch Emem Solar Power JW another nice boy with correct harsh coat, good head, long ribbing and well angled hindquarters He moved well, just preferred the slightly heavier bone of my winner. 3 Tomsett Dajean Surely A Star Veteran Bitch 1 1 West Byeabye Brillare with Archidax Nicely made bitch, stripped down to her undies so could not assess coat texture. Good head, length of neck and well laid back shoulders. She has strong well angulated hindquarters and moved well. Minor Puppy Bitch 4 Two lovely puppies headed this class and I’m sure they will change places in the future. Splitting hairs between these two. 1 Tomsett Hebrideansky Canna by Dajean Lots to like about this B/T puppy at her first show. Super harsh coat, nice head, good length of neck, well laid back shoulders and good rear angulation. She moved well. 2 Dance Emem Joyful Sunshine Another lovely baby with the harsh coat typical of this kennel. She has a lovely head, long ribbing and a well angulated rear. Not quite as settled on the move as 1, but enjoying her day. 3 Marston Teal Lordscairnie Peaceful Love Puppy Bitch 8 (2) 1 Kilroy Rozelle Rosalie at Jannacop Very smart. Well bodied and heavily boned red girl with typical hound head leading into long neck and good front assembly. She moved well keeping a good outline, and her super harsh coat completed the picture. One to watch in the future. BPB 2 Blackburn Stargang Aurora JW Dapple girl, with strong head and good front, long well sprung ribs, moved well with drive, but not quite the harsh coat of my winner. 3 Kilroy Do Smarties At Janacop Junior Bitch 12 (2) Quality class of up and coming youngsters, boding well for the future of the breed, headed by three lovely bitches, who could easily change places in the future. 1 Dance Emem Hazel Sunshine JW Attractive young lady with the harsh coat I was looking for. She has good ground clearance and strong movement with good reach and drive, keeping a good outline at all times. Well developed pro sternum and long well sprung ribbing completed the picture. 2 Kirkwood-Emery Helydon Tartan Talula JW A slightly lighter made model than my winner, with a good head and expression, well developed fore chest and strong hind quarters, she moved well and, again, had the lovely harsh coat I was looking for. 3 Crossman & Kennedy Moonshe May Bee Post Graduate Bitch 11 (3) 1 Howells Fallowmill Story Time a well made, elegant girl, who pushed hard for top honours, just needs to mature a little more and she will trouble the best. She had the good front, long ribbing and strong hindquarters that I was looking for, and moved soundly. 2 Morris Granhoward Phoebe at Pennywave Loved this girl, who was just recovering from a phantom pregnancy, carrying too much weight over her ribbing, which made her appear short and stuffy. Her conformation is correct, and when she has slimmed down she will come into her own. 3 Kirkwood Helydon Vexy Vixen Limit Bitch 15 (4) 1 Dance Emem Autumnal Sunshine JW well balanced bitch with good head and expression, long neck leading into well laid back shoulders, and long well sprung ribbing . Her movement was spot on which won her the class,and she kept a good outline at all times. 2 Blackburn Stargang Fanfare red girl of sound construction. Good shoulders, prominent prosternum and long ribbing, I just preferred the front movement of my winner. 3 Jones Bimini To The Moon and Back Open Bitch 6 (2) 1 Thorn-Andrews Ch Drakesleat Too Gud To Be True Not a flashy bitch, but when you go over her you realise just how soundly she is made. Good front construction with correct shoulders and the tightest of elbows her ribbing is long and well sprung, and she has strong well muscled hindquarters. Her powerful movement won her the class and also the CC which I was pleased to learn afterwards equalled the breed record. It was an easy decision to award her BOB 2 Blackburn Stargang Sapphire and Steel Dapple girl of pleasing construction, attractive head,well developed front, good angles and long ribbing, but I preferred the harsher coat of 1 3 West Archidax Dark Phoenix Judge Mrs Maureen Poole (Findowrie
