WIRE HAIRED
Thank you for the invitation to judge at this prestigious event. The breed is now fairly uniform in type, with some lovely specimens, especially in bitches. Vet (5) 1 Ch Silvae Pickwick. A dog I have admired and given a ticket to in the past. Beautifully balanced and at one with his handler in this class, still able to trouble the best. In the challenge didn't behave, which cost him the top awards. 2 Bonavoir Betty Rickard. Red bitch of good quality. Good head and eye, good front construction with good keel and excellent ribbing. Powerful quarters which she really used on the move. 3 Allfreys Genevieve. MPD (3) 1 Norriska Yellow Diamond. Lovely head and neck, good pro sternum, pasterns a bit flat and feet turning a little too much in front, but a baby yet. Roadwork would help. Good ribbing and quarters, moved well. 2 Chiselvine Surf Rider. Lovely head, eye and neck, well laid shoulders, forechest needs to develop more. Well balanced quarters but tending to be a bit 'bummy' at the moment. At 6 months has time on his side. 3 Salixian Eclat. PD (4) 1 Romanchi Mohican. Dark brindle with a lovely head and eye. Long neck, shoulders need to tighten. Lovely ribbing and well angulated rear. On the move has correct extension, but needs to tighten all round. 2 Aventine Tropic Thunder. Totally different type from the winner here. Nice head, neck and shoulder, excellent bone and ribbing. Would prefer more angulations in the quarters. Moved absolutely soundly. 3 Norriska Yellow Diamond. JD (4) 1 Ex Sentia I'm Bond James Bond (Imp Pol). Res CC. Very well balanced young dog of good quality. Excellent head and eye, long neck, decent shoulder, good pro-sternum and excellent ribbing. Well angulated quarters. Moved with good extension. A good showman. Best Puppy. 2 Derochaise Mutineer. Lovely head and eye. Good neck, shoulder a little steep. Excellent length of ribbing, good bone and balanced quarters. Sound on the move. 3 Reveldown Bright Prospect. PGD (4) 1 Ermewood Joint Effort. Biggish male who would look better a little slimmer, I thought! Nice head and eye, a bit loaded in shoulder with a short upperarm, good forechest and bone. Good ribbing, excellent quarters and he moved well. 2 Swincombes Darite. Good head and neck, could have a bit more pro-sternum. Shoulder fair. Good ribbing carried well back. Good quarters and sound on the move. 3 Monisi on the Town. LD (10) 1 Silvae Paradigm. Lovely head and eye, long neck running into well laid shoulders with good angulation. Good pro sternum, excellent length of ribbing and well angulated and balanced quarters. Loved him stacked but on the move didn't quite keep his outline. Beautifully sound fore and aft. 2 Chiselvine Sea Swell. Similar in construction to the winner but just lacking a little in forechest. Lovely head and eye. Good neck and shoulders, good ribbing. Well balanced quarters, moved well. 3 Abbydac Parsley with Andlouis. OD (5) 1 Liebling's Stormin Norman. Very well balanced red dog of good proportions. Good head and eye, ears well placed. Good neck and lay of shoulder, correct angulation, long ribbing and balanced quarters. Moved soundly keeping a good outline. CC. 2 Ch Aventine Rainman at Romanchi. JW. Dog I gave a class to last time I judged. Well balanced in all respects and similar in construction to the winner, but not in his best jacket on the day. 3 Ch Silvae Pioneer. MPB (4,1) 1 Boloria Anisia Bella. Chocolate puppy with lots of promise. Lovely head and eye, long neck flowing into well placed and angulated shoulders. Fair ribbing, lovely hindquarters. Moved soundly. 2 Salaxian Elise. Good head and shoulder, good ribbing and hindquarers. Did not extend properly on the move on the day. 3 Chiselvine Call of the Sea. PB (3) 1 Atahira Centissima. Very nice quality brindle. Good head and neck, good shoulders, ample forechest, excellent length and depth of ribbing. Lovely quarters which she really used on the move. 2 Kindeace See Emily Play. Good head and neck, good shoulder and excellent quarters. Back heavily stripped out in places which detracted from her outline. Sound. 3 Lowjinks Linga Longa. JB (5) 1 Derochaise Black Orchid. I thought this young bitch quite stunning in outline. Beautiful, dark black brindle in colour with a gorgeous head and a dark eye. Long neck, good shoulder placement and a prominent forechest and excellent ribbing. Balanced quarters Moved with correct reach and drive, keeping a beautiful outline. Res CC. 2 Sonic Fancy Free at Kindeace. More mature bitch of a different type to my winner. Well balanced in all departments, but not quite as good in hind angulation. 3 Ritlo Return to Sender with Ablebody. NB (1) 1 Ablebody Pulcinella. Fair head, good neck and shoulder and a good forechest. Ribbing could be longer. Fair quarters, sound on the move. PGB (6) 1 Barmaud Pandors. Very nice type. Good head and shoulder, excellent pro-sternum and ribbing carried well back. Good quarters with short hocks. She tended to stand with a slack topline, however on the move she pulled herself together and kept her outline, moving with correct extension fore and aft. 2 Ritterburg Against All Odds. Very long head, good eye and long neck running into good shoulders. Good forechest and length and depth to ribbing. Good quarters. A little unsettled on the move, tended to crab a little which spoilt her outline. 3 Chiselvine Born to Dance at Abbydac. LB (8,3) 1 Silvae Zest. Brindle of the usual lovely type bred by this kennel. Excellent head and eye, lovely neck running into shoulders of correct construction. Good forechest, ribbing carried well back and a good length of first and second thigh in quarters. Hocks well let down. Moved out covering the ground well. My CC and BOB and I was thrilled to see her get BIS. Well done. 2 Molloney Ann Other at Romanchi. Another good bitch of excellent quality. Good head and shoulders, excellent ribbing and quarters. Very sound on the move, a very close decision. 3 Ablebody La Traviata. OB (9,3) 1 Ch Silvae Mystic. Beautiful salt and pepper bitch. Gorgeous head with a small dark eye. Long neck, good shoulders and ample pro-sternum. Excellent length and depth, beautifully balanced rear. Moved well, one I have admired and could easily have given top awards. 2 Ch Bystock Pumpkin Pie. I was spoiled for choice, this is also a bitch I have admired in the past. Very well constructed in all departments. Just thought she looked a little heavy, moved well keeping her excellent topline at all times. 3 Ir Ch Barmaud Jessicva. Another good one I have placed well before.
