NATIONAL TERRIER CLUB CHAMP SHOW
CAIRN TERRIERS
JUDGE Pat Jeffrey
It was a great privilege to judge at National Terrier. Quality throughout was mixed but there were plenty of Cairns of high quality there. Contrary to comments I have heard or read lately, I don’t agree that Cairns are in a parlous state. Rear movement has improved considerably and is much better than it was 3 or 4 years ago. There were plenty of good, well-proportioned heads, both in dogs and bitches, but there were a few with narrow heads, snipy forefaces and large ears. Surely it is up to exhibitors to acknowledge this in their stock and to breed for the correct Cairn head. Very dark, nearly black, eyes can look very becoming and make for a very attractive head, but to get the real Cairn expression the eyes need to be dark hazel, and not too round. Construction, condition and presentation of nearly all exhibits was quite good and I was pleased to see several in full coat. I did find a few exhibits with either small teeth or level bites. Temperament, as ever, was good.

1 WARD’S VANAJAM TRICK A TREAT CC & BOB. Light red brindle, most attractive feminine head, good stop, nice eye, neat ears. Lovely neck and shoulders, good topline and tailset. Moved soundly and showed all out, looking very keen and alert. Her 3rd CC today, and I believe she was shortlisted for BIS.
