South Wales & W.O.E CTC Breed Championship Show,
Saturday, October 16, 2021 I was both humbled and elated by the invite to judge Cairns
in the UK at a Breed Championship show.
After Covid restrictions, it was like a mirage to see so many excited
dogs and eager exhibitors back in the ring.
I must comment on how wonderfully private and functional this show
location was. We all must give kudos
to the club for finding such a hidden gem.
I also must thank my incredible and efficient stewards for keeping me
on time and on point with the Kennel Cub judging procedures. They were the very best! As in many other countries, bitches are usually stronger
than dogs, most likely because that is what breeders are willing to keep in
numbers and, in fact, at this show there were many more bitches entered than
dogs. One can see that the Scandinavian dogs have influenced the
breed in the UK as well as in the states, however, I am happy to report that
the whispers and rumors on the internet of 16-inch (40 cm) Cairns across the
pond were completely unfounded. For
the most part, the dogs shown fall within reasonable size and shape. Of course, there will always be variance in
size, which is the case everywhere in the world, but I am of the belief that
larger and smaller dogs have always existed and that they both can be valuable
to a breeding program. I am also happy
to report that presentation here was not overdone as it is in some parts of
the world. Some dogs, however, were
lacking in coat condition. I was
mentored to appreciate dogs being shown in good length of coat which should
be hand trimmed regularly and presented in layered condition. Coat conditioning gives both the functional
and finished look we all admire when we spy Cairns from afar and even more so
up-close when we hold them near. I was
also encouraged that hindquarters here were generally not as close as in the
states and in Scandinavia. My general comments and impressions of the top placed dogs
in each class are below. Veteran Dog or Bitch—(6) 1 Absent 1 Dolan’s CH Glenrood Scheherazade—A lovely balanced
wheaten bitch with stunning head that oozes femininity. She’s excited to be at the show! She’s agile but with good bone and
substance, lithe, and carries a very lovely coat and beautiful correct
topline and has a very nice neck and shoulder. 2 Inett & Harrison’s Ch Carradine George Flies with
Harkinleigh JW—Lovely size dark male with good construction. He’s alert and interested in his
surroundings and moves efficiently and shows well for his handler. He is of a lovely type that screams Cairn,
but he’s entered against a bitch that steals the class on her poise and
presence. 3 Asmyhr’s Windlines Born to Run Wild Minor Puppy Dog—(2) 0 Absent 1 Shannon, Storr, & Middlehurst’s Brenndarcy It’s Magic
Ai—This is a real cracker of a puppy who stacks and shows extremely well for
such a youngster. He carries a lovely
correct outline and moves well around the ring with a very sound and
efficient forequarters. Lovely head
and overall very promising puppy. 2 Shopland’s Cherrycrack Horatio Naf--Just six months and
whistle on this day, this wheaten puppy has lovely bone and substance and
very appealing expression. He needs to
get acclimated to the ring and that will come with maturity. He moves with very nice reach and drive and
I see a very bright future for him.
The other puppy was more polished and poised on this day, but I
suspect that they these 2 will have many fun times in the ring in the future! Junior Dog—(1) 0 Absent 1 Thomas’ Tom Trick’s Jocan Ty Cadno—Junior wheaten male
with an unforgettable head and expression.
Beautifully balanced, with a correct topline, alert and wagging
tail. He sports a punishing strong
muzzle that filled my hand with a correct bite filled with large teeth. Correct width in his hindquarters going
away from the judge which is a virtue to be appreciated today. Shows himself proudly with no handler
fussing needed. (CC & BOS) Novice Dog—(3) 2 Absent 1 Hiam’s Carradine Podgy Paddie Taf—In his underwear today,
short of coat and conditioning on his furnishings, this dog should and will
be appreciated for his effortless reach and drive around the ring. He is alert and inquisitive, with a
pleasing head and coveted dark points.
When he is in a more mature and competitive coat, I can see him making
his championship. Graduate Dog—(4) 1 Absent 1 Byrne’s Carradine Howzat Howard—Well balanced with a good
outline and tail on top as it should be.
Good head and expression.
Moves with animation however a little over-excited on this day. More furnishings on the head and legs and
body coat would complete the picture. 2 Peers’ Tweedisle Charismatic Guy—Wheaten with dark points
moving soundly coming and going. Good
topline and tail but he is a little thin on this day. Just needs a little more experience and a
confidence to move into the next phase of competition. 3 Saich’s Lindcoly Marvelous Trevour Post Graduate Dog—(4) 1 Absent 1 Hogarty’s Cadagio’s Super Trouper—Red brindle who is up
to size with a lovely head and expression, correct bite with big teeth. Moves with reach and drive and can clearly
get where he wants to go in record time.
Showing his socks off today. 2 Peers’ Tweedisle Jaunty Lad—True to his name he is one
jaunty chap not always moving in step with his handler. Otherwise, sound moving and balanced with
pleasing outline, good topline and tail.
He would benefit with bit longer and conditioned coat. 3 Keeves’ Seveek Carry on the Dream Limit Dog—(5) 2 Absent 1 Dennis, Waites and Goddard’s Good Times Ahead with
Oudenarde—Striking balanced red brindle dog who shows himself off well. He also is very balanced in his
movement. Masculine and pleasing head
and expression. Appreciated his coat
condition and his head and leg furnishings.
Tail always wagging happily. 2 Inett & Harrison’s Carradine In N’ Out Mr Sprout—Dark
brindle moving quite fleetly from the side.
Good level back with good forechest.
Typey head and expression with excellent bite. 3 Saich’s Stoutheart Einstein for Lindcoly Open Dog—(4) 1 Absent 1 Firth’s Ch Cairngold Chico JW—Moderate and self-assured
red with a magnificent coat. Excellent
topline and tailset sporting the perfect carrot tail. In good weight and good muscle. Moves quite soundly and is poised and
commands attention. He has the show
qualities and ring presence that one cannot teach. (Reserve CC) 2 Felters and Rumens’ Landbuck Kingsman—Eye catching dark
dog with gorgeous head and expression and makes quite a picture in
outline. Lovely neck and
shoulder. Quite different than the dog
placed before him but just as useful for a breeding program. Did not always cooperate on the move today
but makes a positive impression. 3 Saich’s Lindcoly Holwing Mad Murdoc Special Beginners Dog—(1) 0 Absent 1 Hiam’s Carradine Podgy Paddie Taf (see Novice Dog) Minor Puppy Bitch—(5) 1 Absent 1 Bubb’s Wandris Strike a Light—Silver brindle bitch that
floats around the ring with ease—her side gait is really something to
behold. Right now up on leg more than
the others in her class. She will need
time to develop and mature, especially in head. Shows much promise. 2 Saich’s Lindcoly Put a Ring on It Naf—Clearly one of her
first times out and about, she showed with cautious glee. Looking good coming and going and carrying
her topline and tail when it’s important.
3 Inett & Harrison’s Carradine Minnie Maisie Puppy Bitch—(3) 0 Absent 1 Waugh’s Glory Daze at Tribannon—Not a small puppy but a
cream bitch with a head to die for.
The kind of “cat” head the old timers talked about. Naughty as they come, however, when she
uses herself correctly, she is a vision.
Outline is all there, moves well and has presence. With maturity a bright future awaits her
for sure. 2 Goldfinch’s Kanawha Never Say Never—Cream bitch of good
proportions and balance giving her handler all she could handle today and
made it hard to assess movement.
Lovely head and expression. 3 Saich’s Lindcoly Turning Back time Junior Bitch—(7) 0 Absent 1 Hogarty’s Cadagio Your One of Us—Smart classy youngster
that is constructed right and does everything well for one so young. Excellent topline and tailset, typey dark
head, I think enough bone and substance for her age. The one to watch for the future CCs. 2 Lund’s Lentrica Hocus Pocus by Jorvikairn—Red brindle in
perfect body coat condition, needs leg furnishings to complete the
package. Good bone and substance,
pleasing head and expression, moves especially well from the side but is not
cooperating perfectly on the move today. 3 Inett & Harrison’s Carradine Wilma Novice Bitch—(7) 3 Absent 1 Inett & Harrison’s Carradine Mary—Typey dark bitch
that screams Cairn. Alert expression,
excellent topline and moved well in all directions. 2 Metcalf-Sault’s Cannwood Quiet Reflections—Wheaten silver
brindle with dark points of very similar type to the first except with a tad
more bone and substance. Very
competitive in this class and moved and showed well. 3 Saich’s Lindcoly Know Who You Are Graduate Bitch—(9) 4 Absent 1 Thompson’s Castleline Maitree—Wheaten bitch with pleasing
proportions and freedom of movement.
Good bone and substance with good forechest with good substance. Went around the ring in a carefree manner
showing off her many positive attributes.
A slight variation in grooming and presentation could surely ascend
her to winning CCs 2 Bubb’s Lindcoly Strike a Pose—Wheaten bitch with dark
points, lovely head and expression.
Presented in correct coat length with proper furnishings. The best of fronts. Hesitated on the move occasionally which
may have hurt her on this day. 3 Shannon & Storr’s Doonrae Rebel Rebel Among
Brenndarcy Post Graduate Bitch—(10) 5 Absent 1 Felters & Rumens’ Landbuck La Voix—This precocious
bitch is special, and she knows it! If
you are patient, she may even show you her lovely head and expression
punctuated by small correct ears and a black mask face, the mask being rare
and coveted in our breed. She moves
with good reach and drive and is all Cairn in attitude, playfulness,
inquisitiveness and naughtiness. She
is the handful that one would love to have. (Reserve CC & Reserve BIS) 2 Hogarty’s Rottriver’s Moet Chandon—Dark statuesque bitch
that stacks with the best of them.
Lovely outline punctuated by an excellent topline and tail set. Good bone and substance. I think a great asset to a breeding
program. Would not behave on the move
today. 3 Dolan’s Glenrood Dance Til Dusk Limit Bitch--(9) 3 Absent Quite a difficult class to judge and on another day the
placements could easily be different. 1 Firth’s Cairngold Chiquitita—Stunning red reminiscent of
her sire shown earlier in the day. She
has a lovely head, clean neck and shoulder, perfect topline and tailset. She’s very feminine and carries herself
with poise. Amazing consistency and
quality that we strive for from this kennel. 2 Hooton & Hughes’ Penticharm It’s My Party—A workman
type Cairn who is sound and moves with precision and efficiency and quite
freely around the ring. Good coat,
head, and balance. She is very
responsive to her handler and will be a real threat as soon as realizes how pretty
she is! 3 Inett, Harrison, & Clayton’s Carradine Jo Open Bitch—(10) 1 Absent 1 Hogarty’s IR CH Cadagio Let’s Get the Party Started—It
may be her party that she is starting, but I was celebrating as well with the
opportunity to go over this stunning bitch.
She has a typey and attractive head with lovely ears and an appealing
keen dark eye. She’s balanced in
outline and sports a perfect double coat of good length and texture. She moves swiftly and stylishly across the
ring without wasting effort. No matter
how many times I tried to catch her she just never puts a foot in the wrong
place. I’m convinced that she would
win anywhere in the world. (CC &
BOB/BIS) 2 Kinton’s Ch Cloverbrook Unbreakable at Woodthorpe—What a
showy, solid, well-constructed bitch with typey head. Topline is level and tailset is a
picture. She stands and moves with
confidence and poise and is hard to miss in any lineup. 3 Dolan’s Whispers at Dawn at Glenrood JW I regret not being able to place more of the quality
bitches in this fabulous and competitive Open class. Special Beginners Bitch—(3) 0 Absent 1 Hiam’s Carradine Dottie—Dark brindle bitch who is alert
and eyes always on her handler. She
moves with good reach and drive around the ring. Excellent muzzle and strong bite with large
teeth. She needs time to mature and
the confidence to show herself better on the ground and free stack. 2 Metcalf-Sault’s Cannwood Quiet Reflections (see Novice
Bitch) 3 Asmyhr’s Motoppen’s Pinot Noir Thank you all for this great honor. I am still pinching myself to be sure it
was not all a dream. Joe Vernuccio |
Sad what you have to do to win a CC
these days!
