Judge: Miss

I must thank the Show committee and the ring stewards who supported me with
excellent admin, also to Graham Peers for taking some lovely pictures! The
entry wasn’t huge and there were a few absentees but nonetheless my final five
winners and a few others were lovely specimens of our wonderful breed. The most important thing for me when looking
at our breed is that a dog should be masculine and bitches feminine. I did find that some dogs would have faired
better in bitch classes and certainly some of the bitches would have knocked
socks off the lads. In boys I like to
see masculinity, strength and substance, not overdone in any way but boys
should be boys. With the girls they
should have a feminine face and expression and should be feminine
throughout. A bitch should have the
same construction and balance but she should be slightly lighter in bone than a
boy and smaller all over. Some of the
bitches were far too chunky throughout and had huge bone, fine on a boy but not
on a girl. Mouths on the whole were
fine, just one or two level bites.
Movement was good where it was good but awful otherwise. Cairns do need
exercise to build muscle and some were lovely on the table but just wobbled
around the ring with no muscle to drive them forward. My top winners were all in fine fettle.
Dog CC BEST OF BREED: Mrs J P POILE Kedvaiy Harlequin. I have admired this dog many times and was
delighted to have the pleasure of judging him today. For me this good-sized red brindle has it all, he has breed type
through and through. He is a typical
Cairn and would not comply with his handler but did enough for tops
honours. His head is masculine and
solid with excellent proportions, you can really feel his skull and muzzle in
your hands, he oozes “Cairn” with that lovely kind expressive eye, my hands
flowed down his lovely length of neck and over his correctly angulated
shoulders along his level topline to his tailset. When settled he moved
strongly both fore and aft but I did on occasions want to shout, “will you walk
properly” as he does have the tendency to be distracted by things a little more
interesting! He was presented in wonderful coat and fine fettle; pleased to
award his 2nd CC & BOB, I am sure the third can’t be far away!
Res Dog CC : Miss J E HOOTON & Mr G THOMAS, Rasken's Romping Playboy (Imp)
I like this boy for balance and breed type, he is a shade larger throughout
than the CC winner and this combined with his youthfulness just lost him the CC
this time round but I am sure his day will come. He has a lovely head with a dark expressive eye, again a head you
can feel under those head furnishings and he has substance which so many lack. Loved his strong bone and his correct length
of neck and correct shoulders. He held
his topline on the move and although not showing fantastically he did stand and
present himself well. To complete the
picture I would like a little more width to him but he is young and has time on
his side. Good luck, he is lovely!
Bitch CC : Mrs E B & Mr I L B SHAW Honeyhall Head Over Heels. Oh this kennel produces them out of the top
drawer time and time again! This bitch
just had it all for me, feminine throughout and so much a Cairn. She had a
sweet feminine head with lovely strong teeth and muzzle, spot on length of neck
flowing into correct shoulders and a most beautiful front when standing. On the table she was lovely to go over and
if her coat had been better she would have taken BOB that let her down today
but could not take away from her overall quality, I could not deny her the
CC. She stood and showed all out. She
has attitude and quality a star combination.
Res Bitch CC : Mr G THOMAS Tycadno Wishing On A Star. And today she was a little star; although she is not as feminine
as the CC winner today she has a typical head and expression, lovely
construction and moved round the ring like a train, her handler holding her
back kept her head up and she said “come on, lets go” and off they went, a joy
to watch flow round the ring. She beat
some lovely bitches in her class and I will enjoy watching how she does in the
future.
Best Puppy : Mrs C & Mr R J HEWITT Correnie Jazz Talk TAF. Oh what a baby, if she had another 12 mths
on her, she would have been taking top honours today. Lovely throughout and for me very much the same comments as for
my BCC winner apply, just lacking that finish that comes with age and
maturity. I considered her for the top
honours today but just couldn’t get past Wishing on a Star’s little bit extra
as she strode round the ring. Today,
she was a baby in a big girls arena and that showed when they did their final
lap but I loved her, she is a Cairn through and through with beautiful head,
expression and construction. Another
that I will watch with interest.
Class 926 MPD (2 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: Mrs J P POILE Kedvaiy Masquerade
I really liked
this young dogs type and head. He
wasn’t that settled on the move but he is made correctly and with the right
environment his movement will come. A
lovely textured red brindle coat with masculine head and expression, not too
many head furnishings at present but again they will come with time. He had a good length of neck and correctly
placed shoulders, held his topline on the move and showed very well for one so
young.
2nd: Mr &
Mrs G S PEERS Tweedisle That Special Son
In full coat
with good head and expression but just not as together as 1.
Class 927 PD (3 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: Mrs S J WEINBERGER Correnie Bo-Jangles
A smart
wheaten brindle that is a good size.
For me, I would like him a little longer in the back. He was shown in full coat, which was on its
way out/in! He had a good head with a lovely topline and tailset, good movement
and he showed steadily.
2nd: Mrs J G PARKER-TUCKER Uniquecottage Sooty Bear
A good-sized
dog that showed steadily but just did not have the substance of 1.
3rd: Miss J M
OUGH Ocedar Sundance
Class 928 JD (4 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: Miss J E THOMAS, Mr G & HOOTON Rasken's Romping Playboy (Imp)
Have admired
this chap and was delighted to get my hands on him!
2nd: Mrs A
WEAVER Copseleaze Corn Cracker
A lovely type
of Cairn but I would have liked him a shade longer on the leg. A lovely clear wheaten with a typical head
and expression being ultra mascaline, good shoulders and topline but I only
hope he comes up on the leg. He was
however shown in lovely coat and condition
3rd: Mr & Mrs G S PEERS Tweedisle Sweet Talking Guy
Class 929 YD (1 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: Mrs A M CARRINGTON Chase the Ace
This light red
had a fright before coming into the ring and this resulted in him not really
showing. He had under all his coat a
good body shape and I liked his balance.
His head and eye were typical and he moved OK.
Class 930 PGD (2 Entries) Abs: 0
1st: Mrs E J A THOMPSON Castleline Jackard
A good-sized
silver brindle dog with a moderate length of neck, straight front and was shown
in good coat and condition. Today he
wasn’t holding his topline on the move so couldn’t be considered for anything
more.
2nd: Miss J M OUGH Ocedar Zephyr
This chap had
a lovely head and showed very well, he needed to settle on the move and for
ideal I would have liked a little more length of leg to balance him up.
Class 931 LD (3 Entries) Abs: 1
1st: Mrs J P POILE Kedvaiy Harlequin
A lovely dog
to judge – thank you!
2nd: Mrs A WAITES Seveek Country Rambler To Svendalens
A smart dog, I
have often admired, he would have had to jump through hoops to beat 1st
today. He was however shown in a good
coat and is all boy, his front legs were stripped a little short, which allowed
me to see his front action!
Class 932 OD (3 Entries) Abs: 1
1st: Mr S W G & Mrs E R SHORT Glenchess Black Tie
A quality
wheaten/cream dog that is up to size.
Looking longer cast today than I have seen him in the past. He is positive in the front and had drive
behind. He is a solid chap whom you can
really feel under your hands. He
relaxed a bit too much in the challenge to be considered for higher honours.
2nd: Miss J M OUGH Ocedar Zephyr
Class 933 MPB (4 Entries) Abs: 1
This class certainly
won the prize for best hop, skip and jump!
1st: Mrs A SMEE Malmay Esmeralda
A lovely young
wheaten brindle pup that was a handful today.
I saw about three strides out of four triangles but couldn’t deny her
the class. She is feminine throughout
and constructed soundly. Presented in
good coat and condition, your hands just flow over her neck and shoulders and
when settled she stood and showed well. I will watch her future with interest.
2nd: Mrs A EXTON Cairngrove Shadow Dancer
A lovely dark
brindle bitch that showed steadily throughout the class. Her front construction was lovely and she
was presented in a good full jacket.
3rd: Mrs J KEEVES Seveek One for the Money
Class 934 PB (7 Entries) Abs: 1
A good class
of pups
1st: Mrs C & Mr R J HEWITT Correnie Jazz Talk TAF
I can’t wait
to see how this young lady grows up! I thought she was a lovely silver brindle
with spot on balance, having the desired length of back that so many are now
lacking. She is all Cairn.
2nd: Mrs E J A THOMPSON Castleline Soloist
A lovely cream
puppy that showed consistently but her coat and presentation let her down. She moved well and was feminine throughout.
3rd: Mrs S J WEINBERGER Correnie Show Time
Class 935 JB (7 Entries) Abs: 1
1st: Mrs E B & Mr I L B SHAW Honeyhall Head Over Heels
I wish she
were mine….
2nd: Mrs A SMEE Malmay Can I Come In
A lovely dark
brindle bitch with excellent feminine head and expression, not as together as
the class winner but nevertheless a smart bitch with a bright future.
3rd: Mrs J A OLDALE Cranae New Dawn
Class 936 YB (8 Entries) Abs: 1
A couple of
lovely girls headed this class
1st: Mr G THOMAS Tycadno Wishing On A Star
I loved this
bitch’s enthusiasm for life.
2nd: Mrs C & Mr R J HEWITT Littleacorn Keep In Touch
I preferred
the expression of this bitch to the class winner but she was not showing as
well and lacked enthusiasm. She was a
super bitch to go over and everything is where it should be but I do like
Cairns to show and 1st had the edge today. There was not a lot to separate the two of them.
3rd: Mrs A J DAVEY Beranburgh The Black Pearl
Class 937 PGB (4 Entries) Abs: 2
1st: Mr F & Mrs C CONFUE Anjofra Queen of Tarts
A showy bitch
with lovely dark points
2nd: Mr J W & Mrs M E DOWLING Honeyhall Hijump
A lovely head
but sadly lacking in coat and she didn’t move as well as her construction
suggested she should.
Class 938 LB (6 Entries) Abs: 2
1st: Mr & Mrs B G MEARS Glenmear Marcuella
This dark
brindle bitch was an enigma for me. She
has a classic head with lovely neck, shoulders topline and tailset. The complete picture really except that for
me she is just too mescaline. This is the hard bit, as I can’t criticise her
other than to say that for me she would give the boys a run for their
money! She moved well and showed good
enough to win this class but I could not give her any more. A lovely tomboy!
2nd: Mrs S E DOLAN Glenrood Dusty Pipit
This dark
brindle bitch had lovely construction and moved well but was sadly out of coat
today which detracted from her overall balance and made her look out of
proportion.
3rd: Mrs J KEEVES Seveek Chasing Dreams
