CAIRN TERRIERS – Judges Report

 

 

 

Judging affords one the privilege of going over other people’s stock and I would like to thank all the exhibitors who helped to make this long awaited day so enjoyable. The lack of quality in dogs has already been well documented, but that said Open Dog was treat to see – 4 Champions and a ticket winner. In bitches the ‘class of the day’ was Post Graduate, interestingly the 5 places were taken by just 2 breeders. In the line up for the Bitch Ticket I was spoilt for choice.

 

For me a Cairn must be as the standard says, workman like and should appear to be able to account for itself if the occasion arises. Many could not and I found several weak jaws with resultant small teeth and also some lacking in substance. Construction and therefore movement both fore and aft is still a problem in too many. Sadly there were also 3 unacceptable bites, 1 set of round eyes and 1 suspect temperament.  I also discovered why some dogs seem to have been particularly hard done by in the past. Ringsiders do not see all!

 

Presentation penalised a few exhibits, a good coat coming is better than one on the blow. A few were very heavily coated which spoilt the overall outline and whilst I’m not keen on the ‘sculptured model look’ tidiness completes the picture. Surprisingly few people seem to trim out between the pads these days.

 

MPD 8(4)       1          Weedall’s CLAIREVONA VIBRANT KNIGHT 6½ months red, confident & eager

                                    to please, very immature as yet, needs to grow on and hopefully tighten up in front.

 

                        2          Newton’s STRATHINVER ROYAL APPLAUSE Somewhat unbalanced as yet and

                                    quite heavy over the shoulders for one so young. Not the calibre we have seen from

 this kennel in the past

 

                        3          Culliford’s BRENNDARCY COUNTRY MOUSE

 

PD 7(2)           A difficult class to judge, all very different types

 

1          Shopland’s CHERRYCRACK FOOLS GOLD Short of coat but nothing to hide, good length of leg and back, there appears to be no constructional reason for his sometimes erratic movement – just puppy exuberance. A good prospect

 

2          Kinton’s WOODTHORPE THE GAMBLING MAN Well up to size, not coarse but in heavy coat. A real masculine head and expression with nice big teeth. Movement excellent retaining positive topline, my type.

 

3          Leese’ CLOVERBROOK SILVER REBEL

 

 

JD 4                1          Harrison’s & Formosa’s CARRIDINE PENFORD Almost out of Junior but still

                                    somewhat immature, his movement impressed but badly needs a new coat.

 

                        2          Fairweather’s OCK I’M THE BOSS Attractive head, a bit unbalanced in that

                                    the forequarters are quite heavy in comparison to the hindquarters. Moved well  enough

 but needs better overall presentation

 

                        3          Bambridge’s CARRADINE MASTER GUY FOR LUVEMAL

 

 

PG 9(3)           1          Thompson’s CASTLELINE PRINCE HARRY A well constructed dog who doesn’t

                                    always do himself justice when standing, moved with plenty of drive and showed

                                    well. Needs a new coat

 

                        2          Peers’ TWEEDISLE CHASING VIKINGS Head not as masculine as I would like, 

                                    overall good size and reasonably well balanced, lethargic in movement today and not

                                    really enjoying himself

 

                        3          Ramsden's CAIRNGOLD SPARTICUS

 

 

LD 7(2)           1          Robert’s CANNWOOD AUGUREY Very smart cream dog, beautifully presented,

                                    best of heads with lovely dark eye and perfect mouth. He conforms well to the

                                    standard without being overdone, never stopped showing. However he did not move

                                    as well as I would like on the day.

 

                        2          Birch’s KINKIM WATTLUQ  Typical of this kennel, consistent breeding of type

 over many years. Lovely dark points, good bone without being heavy, well balanced giving pleasing overall picture. As usual presented with perfection. Would like to see just a bit more spark of individuality/animation  but shows well enough

 

                        3          Cadogan’s DOGAN JAMESY COTTER

 

 

OD 7(2)           1          Cameron’s CH. STRYVELING IVANHOE Fine upstanding dog exactly what I like

                                    to find. Some may say his head is not masculine enough but it is the overall picture

                                    that counts. The best of fronts and shoulders, strong well muscled quarters, moved

                                    with plenty of drive, really covering the ground. Came fresh to the ring after a break,

                                    presented in beautiful condition and coat. Pleasure to award him the CC & BOB

 

                        2          Wall’s CH. SHEARWATER CAE DE SONHAS What a great ambassador for the

                                    breed, I can add nothing to what has been said in the past, just did not have quite to

                                    charisma of 1 today. RCC. Pleased to see him take 3rd place in the Champion Stakes

                                    later.

 

                        3.         Braybrook’s CH. CLOVERBROOK LOADED DICE.

 

MPB  9(2)       1          Parker-Tucker’s UNIQUECOTTAGE GLENGETTIE 8½ months well grown, with

                                    lovely head, and real Cairn but feminine expression, good large teeth. Sufficient bone

with good length of leg and well balanced overall. Quite heavily coated but this does

not detract from her overall quality. Moved well but a little wayward yet. Time on her

side, with maturity she will be hard to beat.

 

                        2          Osborn’s TWESLAM KALAMAZOO A little larger than we normally see from this

                                    kennel but consistent type, 7½ months, very confident and outgoing. However did not

                                    hold her topline quite as well as 1 and was unlucky to meet one of ‘my type’. A

                                    promising young bitch.

 

                        3          Braybrook’s CLOVERBROOK RE-LOADED

 

 

PB 14(2)          1          Catto’s BIRSELAW SPECIAL MOMENT Mature puppy in very full coat, perhaps

                                    a little more short coupled than I usually like, but she is not unbalanced and is sound

                                    in conformation and movement. Moved out well retaining her topline and never

stopped showing. BP

 

                        2          Shopland’s CHERRYCRACK CHASING AIMEE Different type altogether, rather

                                    more rangy, good angulation which meant she moved with drive when she settled.

Out of coat, will watch her progress with interest.

 

                        3          Poile’s KEDVAIY PASCALI

 

 

JB 15(3)          1         Shaw’s HONEYHALL HIJINX  If ever there was a star in the making, here she is.

                                    So feminine, confident and outgoing. Perhaps a little smaller than I normally like,

beyond that I found nothing to dislike about her and her quality cannot be denied, just

not quite mature enough yet for the top spot. Wish she was mine. RCC

 

2                    Pollock’s STANEDYKES DIVA  Always admired her as a puppy and she is

 maturing well. Really wicked expression, her heavy coat is doing her no favours and

 she looks a bit cobby and shorter on the leg than she is. Very hard well muscled

condition, excellent movement.

 

                        3          Smee’s RING THAT BELLE FOR MALMAY

 

 

PGB 16(3)       1          Grainger’s OUDENARDE BUFFY’S ANGEL Really beautiful head with that

slightly wicked expression, good length of neck into the best of fronts and shoulders.

Strong well muscled hindquarters giving plenty of drive on the move. Quality coat

although could possibly do with a bit more. Gives her all in showmanship and also

displays that hint of devilment that makes for individuality. A pleasure to award her

3rd CC

 

                        2          Smee’s OUDENARDE BELLE AMOUR Litter sister to above, similar remarks

apply but a bit short of coat and did not hold her topline quite so well. Neither of

these two extrovert bitches allow the handlers a moment’s relaxation in the ring!

 

                        3          Harrison & Formosa’s SPAWYCHE FOREVER AMBER AT CARRADINE

 

 

LB 6(1)           1          Munday’s STRADIVARIUS SONATA One I have admired from the ringside for a

long time and I was not disappointed, lovely well furnished head, correct length of

neck with good shoulders and front. I particularly like her length of leg and overall balance, she moves with drive and never stops showing. Unfortunately she is having to give way to the very young stars appearing at the moment.

 

                        2          Weaver’s COPSELEAZE LITTLE GEM  Lovely dark points enhance her

expression, she is well muscled and in hard condition with an excellent quality coat,

moved well and shows all the time. Just a little portly. A real honest workman type of

bitch who has probably been overlooked because of it.

 

                        3          Shannon & Storr’s BRENNDARCY SOLAR CORONA

 

 

OB 6(2)           1          Jones’ CH PENTICHARM CELTIC PRINCESS The quality of this bitch is

undeniable, she meets the standard perfectly and was presented in top order. Moving

 she is a joy to watch and standing her attention to her handler never waivers.

 However on the day I would have liked her to show that extra spark of individuality

 that made the CC & RCC winners stand out for me.

 

                        2          Firth & Jones’ CAIRNGOLD CHARCOAL Very well balanced bitch with keen

 expression, again gives the impression of being workman like but with a feminine

 personality. Moves really well with plenty of drive keeping her excellent level

 topline. In the best of coats. Different type to 1 but very typical of the breed.

 

                        3          Goud’s BEANOAK SCATTER THE MUD
