CRUFTS MARCH 2011
Cairn Terriers – Judge Norma Newton
Thank you for an excellent entry swelled by exhibitors from
several countries and with very few absentees. Many thanks to my stewards who
were instrumental in my finishing in good time.
I found the entry quite varied in type, but I was still able
to find many who fitted the standard as I see it. Bitches were as usual
stronger in quality throughout than the dogs. Movement remains a problem, with
many otherwise very good Cairns remaining unplaced because of wide fronts or
close hind movement, lacking drive.
Mouths were mostly ok, a few cairns were too thin,
temperaments were excellent, most coats were double and of correct texture,
clean and tidy, not too ‘sculptured’
I was delighted to find exactly the Cairn I was looking for
in my beautiful Best of Breed, Cannwood Remember Holly JW, she didn’t put a
foot wrong and was superbly shown and presented by her handler Alison in the group, and they received a
great reception from the ringside.
VD 6 (2 abs) A good first
class with 3 worthy Champions
1. Catto’s Ch/Nor/Fin/Dan/Swed
Ch Birselaw Billy Fury – what can one say about Billy that has not already been
said? So well made throughout, today he was in great form and condition, he
never stopped showing and moved so well. A top ambassador for Cairns
2. Parker Tucker’s Ch
Uniquecottage Tidy Shoes – lovely type, one I admired as a youngster, and still
in very good form and coat, moved well when settled.
3. Ehrenberg’s Ch Carradine
Master Tigger – Red Brindle, still very showy, masculine head, good front but
lacking hair, otherwise in good coat and condition, moved well.
Special Puppy Dog- 8 entries
1. Robinson’s Cruzo Bilbo
Baggins (BP) – Very nice 10 month old cream in short coat of correct texture,
beautifully balanced puppy, correct neck and shoulders, top line & tail set,
moved well front and rear with flowing movement. Showed well in this class but
was ‘over the top’ in the challenge, a typical puppy character and I really
liked him, should do well when he settles down.
2. Templeton’s Larchlea I Want
to Break Free – Dark Brindle, another promising puppy, attractive head, good
mouth, moved and showed well, would like a bit better spring of rib & to mature in body.
3. Waugh’s Tribannon For Your
Eyes Only – liked his head and expression, good mouth, moved well, keeping his
top line but dropped his tail when standing.
Special Junior Dog – 5
entries

Rocket – Wheaten with dark points, good head, neck and shoulders, straight
front, level top line, in good coat and body.

About it – Dark brindle, beautiful head, and neat ears, would just like a
little more length of back and leg to balance outline, in good coat, moved ok
when settled.
3. Percy’s Sir Percy – another
with super head and expression, neat ears, correct bite, in good coat, like his
front movement but lacked drive in rear.
