I would like to thank the society for inviting
me to judge one of my favourite breeds, and of course the exhibitors for
giving me the opportunity to evaluate their dogs. I thoroughly enjoyed my
day, made all the easier by my two excellent stewards who kept my ring
organised making my task so much easier, thank you. I was delighted with my
final winners, watching them parade around the ring, all great examples of
the breed today. Jd (1)
1 Hannah-Mitchell’s Dachyclan Lachlan at
Bronia (imp. Aus.) What a great start to the day I absolutely loved this you
male, stunning appearance he set the bench mark for the day, sleek body and
coat, my hands just flowed over him, from his perfect well balanced conical
shaped head, dark almond shaped eyes, elegant neck flowing into well laid
back shoulders, correct angulation to forequarters, with prominent pro
sternum, oval chest so well supported by strong upper arm, firm body well
ribbed, and strong rear quarters giving the required drive from rear, he
flows around the ring with complete ease. Thought he could have been my
winner today, but just lost out in maturity to winner for overall body and
substance. res CC. Pgd (5) 1 Paskins Kindeace Hit the Road Jack, confident
14 month male, masculine head with dark almond shaped eyes, strong tapering
muzzle good underjaw, he is muscular, with plenty of body and substance,
firm neck and shoulder, level topline with strong rear drive, shows to
advantage on the move displying strong reach and drive, keeping level
topline with ample ground clearance.
2 Vincent’s Breezelyn Long Awaited by
Gainscroft, an elegant, confident red male with long silky coat, super
conical shaped head, well balanced with dark almond shaped eyes, and good
pigmentation, he is pleasing to handle on table with good forechest, would
like tighter elbow which showed when he just lost out to winner who I felt
was better in front movement on the day, but otherwise covered ground well.
3 Carter’s Breezelyn Long Way to go to Logetta LD (4) 1 Sloan, Dunbar &McNaughton’s
Cedavoch Dark Magic, compact 3 year old black & tan male, well balanced,
with ample substance, lovely conical shaped head, well balanced, with dark
almond shaped eyes. He has a strong neck, set into well laid shoulders, with
required forechest, covers the ground well on the move. 2 Taylor &Hilton’s
Delsaux Across the Universe, two year old male, with conical shaped head,
dark almond shaped eyes,, balanced muzzle to skull, a slightly heavier dog
and not the confidence of winner, moved out well. 3 Paskins Kindeace You
Wear it Well OD (3,1)) 1 Geesons Ch Abydachs Return of the Night, a solid,
well muscled male, alert and attentive at all times, no denying his ability
to work if required, masculine head, so well balanced, dark almond shaped
eyes, strong jaw and bite, muscular neck, set into well laid back shoulders,
well ribbed with deep oval chest so well supported by strong well boned
legs. His topline is firm and level, strong muscular rear quarters give
required driving action from the rear. He is a real showman on the move,
head held high, from strong neck through to level topline, his muscular rear
quarters power him around the ring. Pleased to award Dog CC and Best of
Breed, and delighted to see him later short listed in a strong Hound Group,
well done. 2 Paskins Cedavoch it’s Taboo at Kindeace, 5 year old dog, moving
with ease around the ring, unlucky to meet winner, he has a balanced conical
shaped head with strong muzzle, dark almond shaped eyes, moderate neck set
into well laid shoulders, level topline, moved out well. VD (4) 1 Hirst’s
Ranglewood Lantana at Kejana, a lovely class to judge, chose this 10 year
old Black and Tan who holds his age well, still with good dentition,
masculine conical shaped head with dark almond shaped eye, firm well sprung
body, short loin and well muscled rear quarters, excels on the move still
keeping his level topline and tail carriage. 2 Pike & Carters Ch. Zarcrest
George Clooney, hard to believe this male is a veteran, I judged him as a
younger dog and feel now he is at his best, super outline, conical shaped
head, dark almond shaped eyes, strong muscular neck set into well laid
shoulders, shown in super coat, long and silky, without being over done, he
moves out with reach and drive, should have a promising veteran career ahead
of him. 3 Garlicks Ranglewood Arashi SPECIAL BEGINNERS D (3) 1 O’Neil’s
Ranglewood Finlaggan at Donnadach, placed last in an earlier PG class, this
dog came into his own here, he seemed to gain in confidence and really
motored around the ring, he has a sturdy body with good forechest, he has a
masculine head, conical in shape with dark almond shaped eyes. 2 Heaps
Ranglewood Katrine, loved this bitch, but so lacking in confidence on the
day. She is feminine all through, well balanced head and muzzle, gently
tapering with dark almond shaped eyes, set on elegant neck, well laid
shoulders and level topline. I hope she gains her confidence as could do
well in the future 3 Foley’s Logettawynn Bymyles at Clavennae Pb (2) 1
Dare’s Darsoms Zyrhona, a close decision between these two, liked the size
profile and angulation of this bitch, firm well ribbed body with good
forechest. Needs to improve her ring attitude as at times reluctant to move
out, but once she does, she exhibits the reach and drive required. Best
Puppy 2 Reid’s Swansford Daphnedora at Maudaxi, close up to first, pleasing
conical shaped head, well balanced muzzle to skull, dark almond shaped eye,
elegant neck, flowing into well constructed forequarters, firm body well
ribbed, with short loin and strong rear quarters. Still very much a puppy,
carry a little extra weight, which showed in her movement as she was closer
coming and going than I would have preferred. Sure this will rectify itself
as she matures, a really promising bitch. Jb (6) 1 Pike & Carter’s Breezelyn
Longing for Love, two elegant bitches, I chose this bitch as my winner,
sleek in outline from the tip of nose to end of tail. Her head is well
balanced gently tapering giving required conical shape, dark almond shaped
eye, elegant neck, set into well laid shoulders with ample forechest, level
topline with correct tail carriage, Strong driving rear action gained her
this place. 2nd McNaughton’s Cedavoch As if by Magic, again a promising
bitch, just not as settled on the move today. Compactly made, yet still with
the required length and depth of rib. Feminine head, well balanced with dark
almond shaped eye and good pigmentation. 3 Reid’s Cavallibrook One Final
Kiss at Maudaxi PGB (5) 1 Geesons The Marquis Mansions Atlantic C at
Abydachs (imp) mature 2 year old Black and Tan bitch, handled well to
display her qualities. Balanced conical shaped head, dark almond shaped eye,
moderate neck, leading to good forechest, firm topline to compact well
ribbed body with short firm loin, firm rear quarters, moved out well to take
the class 2 Garlicks Ranglewood Heilen, close up,to winner, this bitch is a
moderate size and has a touch more elegance about her, just not as willing
to comply with her handler on the day making her difficult to assess on the
table, well constructed she comes into her own on the move, where her strong
rear quarters give the required drive from rear and well constructed
forequarters the forward reach, giving a flowing movement which is a
pleasure to see. 3 West’s Aurora Rude for Kendalldax (imp. Lux) LB (4) 1
Paget & Carroll’s Cavallibrook Final Say at Marvale, loved this two year old
Black and Tan, I see she is sister to winner, elegant well balanced conical
shaped head, dark almond shaped eye, strong reachy neck, leading into well
constructed body, laid back shoulders well constructed forequarters oval
chest well supported, firm level, topline leading to strong muscular rear
quarters which give driving action on the move Reserve CC 2 Garlicks Kyrenia
Queens Request with Ranglewood, compact two year old shaded red bitch, a
pleasure to handle on table, she has a feminine conical shaped head, elegant
neck, leading to well constructed forequarters, prominent sternum, firm
topline leading to muscular rear quarters, moved out well 3 Geesons Abydachs
Hot Patootie OB (3,1) 1 Hannah-Mitchell’s Ch. Cavallibrook Final Fling
Bronia, loved this two year old red bitch, she is a picture of elegance on a
muscular body, your hands just flow from her feminine balanced conical head,
dark almond shaped eyes, well set ears, firm neck set into well laid
shoulders, well supported oval chest, ribbed well back to short strong loin
and muscular rear quarters, she excels on the move exhibiting reach and
drive, delighted to judge her and award her the Bitch CC.
2 McNaughton’s Ch. Blithe Spirit, a quality
exhibit I have previously awarded Best puppy & Res CC to, good to see she
has reached her early potential. She is a well constructed 3 year old bitch,
who has obviously matured since I last judged her, she now has a firm well
muscled compact body, strong loin with muscular well constructed rear
quarters, she moved out well with purpose, just couldn’t match the free
flowing style of the winner, but still a bitch worthy of her title.
